Students and staff at a Toronto Jewish girls school that was the target of a shooting over the weekend are shaken but undeterred, the principal said Monday as police continue to investigate the incident.
Rabbi Yaacov Vidal of Bais Chaya Mushka Elementary School said some students were apprehensive about attending classes on Monday but everyone showed up.
“We are united, we’re resilient, we’re optimistic and we trust in God and we are not going to be deterred,” Vidal said in a phone interview.
Toronto police say two suspects fired shots at the school in the city’s north end shortly before 5 a.m. Saturday. No one was injured, though there is damage to the building. Police have released video and images of a dark-coloured vehicle in which the suspects fled.
Police say it’s too early to say for sure if the shooting was hate-motivated, but politicians are condemning it as an antisemitic act.
