after a woman was targeted with vile racist language and threatened with a knife, in what is being described as a hate-motivated assault with a weapon investigation.
The incident occurred on Thursday, March 9, 2023 at 4:48 p.m., when a woman riding a southbound subway train from Vaughan Metropolitan Station was approached by a man who engaged her in conversation and made comments directed at the woman's Muslim faith.

The suspect is described as male, approximately 50-60 years old, with a thin build and a long white beard. At the time of the attack, he was wearing layered clothing, including a black hoodie, dark baseball cap, black leather jacket, and green military-style pants, as well as a green backpack.
