Festival known as family-friendly
CBC’s Lorenda Reddekopp, who has attended Salsa on St. Clair for years, notes the event is known as a safe and family-friendly event.
The festival is all about Latin culture, with musicians and dancers performing throughout the day. It’s one of the biggest events on the Toronto summer event calendar, running in the city for 22 years.
Tonight, the community has been gripped by fear.
Reddekopp described people running away from the sound of the shooting, seeking shelter in restaurants and convenience stores.
