Toronto Police found another suspicious package in Etobicoke, Ont., which has been alleged to contain explosives over the Halloween season. This was the fifth in a row.
On Tuesday, the bomb squad returned to Amazing Party and Costume Store where earlier at night a fourth suspicious package was reported shortly after 7 p.m. A few days ago, bomb squad was called to a location near the Gardiner Expressway and Islington Avenue when a suspicious package was discovered by the employees.
Toronto Police has confirmed that the first three suspicious packages contained explosives; however, further details about the nature of explosive material were kept hidden.
The Amazing Party and Costume Store posted about the incident on their website.
The post read: "There are no words to express the gratitude we feel towards our loyal customers, suppliers and neighbours for their support and understanding during this act of terrorism."
The terrorized costume store is the biggest such outlet of its kind in Canada, says the owner Shawn Hamilton. According to Hamilton, the store on average generates $2-million annually in revenue.
Hamilton seemed shocked at the incident, and because of the timing, in a particularly seasonal business, and suspects a rival might be behind the act.
“But can you imagine this? Doing this where children are?” said Hamilton.
