One teenager is recovering from burns and several others, including two police officers, were hurt during Halloween night mayhem in Delta, B.C..

 

A statement from Delta police says as many as 400 people gathered at South Delta Secondary School and a neighbouring park in what they describe as a "deliberate attempt to damage property, cause disruption, and impact public safety."

One teenager is recovering from burns...[after] a deliberate attempt to damage property, cause disruption, and impact public safety.

You have to love instant karma.

South Delta isn't UVic. Something's not right here.


Know it all.

A little bit sad, the TC map only has four items on it:

Weapons is tough -many of the popular costumes would typically have a weapon of sorts. Swords, bows, scythes, axes, guns etc.

The definition of each of those is open to broad interpretation. Isn’t Halloween culture?

Thank you Nparker.
