A young lady shot to death caught in the line of crossfire outside Muzik club, a club I've attended many times when I lived in Toronto and on this night was hosting Drake's afterparty for his OVO fest. Two men arguing, one draws a gun which left another man dead and this innocent young lady.
As gunfire erupted in the background, Arelia Navarro-Fenoy and her two friends knew they had to get home immediately, to safety.
The original plan was to head to a nearby parking lot, to get a ride from a friend after a night partying at Muzik, where rapper Drake hosted his OVO Fest after-party Monday evening.
But they picked up the pace, walking toward a line of about 10 taxis on Dufferin St. They tried cab after cab but, as friend Franca Abate told the Star, the response was always the same.
"They all refused us," she said of the cabbies, who appeared unaware of the danger. "They said it was only an $8 fare."
So they headed toward the friend's car to escape the chaos and confusion and return home to the Bathurst St. and Lake Shore Blvd. area early Tuesday morning.
But as they walked, they saw men arguing. Then one drew a gun, Abate said.
