A family and a festival: How Vancouver's Lapu Lapu Day tragedy unfolded

  • On April 26, 2024, a deadly assault during Vancouver’s Lapu-Lapu Day celebrations resulted in 11 fatalities and left 13 individuals wounded.
  • The accused, Kai-Ji Adam Lo, has schizophrenia and was on extended leave under provincial mental health care before the attack.
  • The Lo family had faced recent turmoil, including the January 2024 death of Adam’s brother Alexander Lo, who was found dead in East Vancouver.
  • Adam Lo faces eight counts of second-degree murder, with additional charges anticipated, and authorities have mandated an evaluation of his mental state to determine if he is competent to stand trial.
  • The tragedy spurred public grief and demands for mental health reform, with Premier David Eby pledging changes to the Mental Health Act amid ongoing debates over mandatory treatment laws.
