Victim in Lapu-Lapu Day festival attack launches class-action lawsuit proceedings
October 24, 2025
A victim of the Lapu-Lapu Day festival attack has launched class-action proceedings against Vancouver Coastal Health and the City of Vancouver, claiming authorities were negligent in allowing the accused to be out on extended leave from a mental-health facility and that police failed to put in place an adequate safety plan for the event.
In a notice of civil claim filed this week with the Supreme Court of British Columbia, John Lind describes suffering serious injuries at the April 26 Filipino-Canadian block party in Vancouver when Adam Lo allegedly drove his SUV through wooden sawhorses and into the crowd, killing 11 people. More than two dozen others were injured, including a 22-month-old.
