One day prior to the start of the new school year, a youngster from Saint Lucia who was born in Canada was shot and killed in a shower of bullets outside a Toronto mall.
Living next to the mall, Mario Giddings was fifteen years old. Broken glass, automobile wreckage, and bullet-riddled storefronts provided stark, quiet evidence of the attack’s savagery on Monday at around 7:44 p.m. A few flowers had also been left at the scene of the horrific gun carnage.
Mario’s guardian and distraught aunt, Fortunata Giddings, made an appearance on CTV News Toronto to demand justice for the small child, whose parents were in Saint Lucia.
Mario, according to Fortunata, was terrified to go to school. “He told me to look for another place to go to school because those boys will come back to me,” the aunt recalled.
“I think they had a fight there with a few of them, so he was afraid to go there.” Lea Seraphin, Mario’s mother, who resides at Millet, told St. Lucia Times that she was speechless and shocked. She claimed that Mario’s aunt had called to break the heartbreaking news of his shooting death.
Lea revealed that Mario arrived in Saint Lucia at the age of three and left for Canada at the age of ten. She revealed to St Lucia Times that the adolescent had spent the previous five years living in Canada. Lea described Mario as the last of four children, quiet, intelligent, and affectionate.
“He would constantly say, ‘Mommy, I love you.'” The mother recalled, “Always coming and hugging me, would come and lie down by me.” Lea, who spent more than ten years living in Canada before moving back to Saint Lucia, added that she would miss Mario’s laughter.
People reported seeing a black vehicle drive away from the location of the shooting incident involving the adolescent. Mario’s mom informed St.L ucia said that she would miss Mario’s belly laughs.
