Lapu Lapu festival tragedy: Suspect moved to another jail following death threats

Friday is a provincial day of mourning to remember the 11 people who were killed at the Lapu Lapu festival in Vancouver last weekend.

The day of mourning comes on the same day the suspect in the case, 30-year-old Kai-Ji Adam Lo, made his first appearance in court.

The British Columbia Prosecution Service said Lo’s lawyer requested the appearance be moved ahead from the previously scheduled date of May 26.

Lo faces eight charges of second-degree murder, and police have said more charges are expected. Global’s Rumina Daya reports.
