15 people injured following 'suspicious' explosion at Mississauga restaurant
Fifteen people are hurt after an explosion an Indian restaurant at a Mississauga plaza Thursday night in what police are calling a "suspicious" incident.

Peel paramedics say they were called to the scene of Bombay Bhel in the area of Hurontario Street and Eglinton Avenue East around 10:30 p.m. ET.

Three people suffered "critical blast injuries" and were rushed to a Toronto trauma centre, they said.

Const. Irina Yashnik could not say where in the building the blast originated or how many people were inside at the time.

Tactical teams could be seen outside the restaurant as patients were loaded into ambulances. Yashnik said they were there as a part of a "multi-unit" response, but would not elaborate on the cause of the blast, whether any suspects are being sought or if there is any threat to public safety.

The restaurant was evacuated and the plaza is expected to be sealed off for investigation until at least morning.

I loved that restaurant and home everyone can get back on their feet after something like this...

god how frightening, why the fuck do people gotta do this in public places with innocent peoples around? If you got a grudge then challenge them to a duel... Don't go blowing up family restaurants.

I feel like Ssaugs has seen a few too many explosions in the last few years.

Who does this shit?

Hopefully the impact of injuries are minimized by medical staff and the police catch the two cowards quickly.

Trump having taken the office have large impact in Canada as well, never in the last 15 years I have heard so much race target hate crime. Especially in greater Toronto area.

Fucking horrible. My Uncle's place is a few minutes from there. I know we've been sheltered from much of this in the GTA until recently, but it still feels super surreal when you've been near and around these places getting attacked. Hope there aren't any casualties and they find the culprits and a motive. =(

Stay strong, Sauga. We got your back. Don't give in to hate.
heavily white clientele I imagine..
lol, you don't know Mississauga do you

What the fuck is going on?

Hopefully everyone they injured will pull through and be okay. This is sad and so evil/unnecessary.

Description of suspects from the police twitter + the target location (indian restaurant with POC clientele) suggest this is good ol' white supremacist terrorism

Canada, set an example for the world and be intolerant of intolerance. Seek justice swiftly and mercilessly. Because America sure as hell doesn't care about fixing this issue.

Terrible.

Gonna hazard a guess and presume this was a racist attack by what sounds like a couple of dumbass white guys.

There is nothing more cowardly of an act than to place explosives. On your way in to place the bomb and see innocent people, children and put the bomb down and just walk out, I hope these fucks get caught quick and preferably dirty

Fuck, that's absolutely terrible. I hope there are no deadly injuries. What the fuck is up with these assholes coming out of the woodwork in Canada. First the Incel guy, now this. Screw these fucking cowards. I hope the whole fucking book is thrown at them.

This amounts to literally terrorism, and I'm going to stick with that, especially since there is an election in 2 weeks. Fuck anybody who tries to argue otherwise.

Not my part of Mississauga but that's shocking. Sounds like a racist attack.

Hope they catch them, not much to go on it seems.

I hope the victims make a full recovery:(

People missing the point w/heavily white clientle comment.

Point is no, it's not. Most likely a racist attack. Hope no one dies.

I've been reading various comments on other forums and some people are saying it was a target hit. Not terrorism or hate crime related. Which seems more likely to me given the nature of the crime and where it took place. But this is pure speculation and we should should wait until we get more details from official sources.
