Lapu Lapu festival tragedy: Man who kept angry crowd back from suspect says it was right to do
WARNING: Some of the details in this story are disturbing. Discretion is advised.
For the first time since the April 26 tragedy at the Lapu Lapu festival in Vancouver, a man who played a key role in apprehending the suspect visited the growing memorial.
“Surreal,” festival-goer Dudley Green said. “And there’s a bit of sadness, emptiness, because it’s all cleaned up now but the wreckage of everything is still kind of vivid in the mind,” he added.
Green had decided last minute to attend the festival, which was being held to celebrate Filipino culture and heritage.
At the end of the night, when the crowd started to dissipate, Green said he was walking between two food trucks when he saw a “black blur” go speeding by.
