TORONTO (AP) — A 38-year-old Canadian man is facing murder charges after a pickup truck rammed into pedestrians, killing two men and injuring nine other people walking beside a road. Three of those injured Monday are in critical condition. Police aren’t revealing a possible motive for the attack in the Quebec province town of Amqui. Provincial police spokeswoman Sgt. Hélène St-Pierre says the man, a local resident, turned himself in immediately after the crash and was facing murder charges. A senior government official familiar with the matter said the incident was not terrorism.
