Alek Minassian, 25, will appear in court at 1000 Finch Ave. W at 10 a.m., Toronto Police said in a Twitter post early Tuesday morning. The post did not specify the exact charges against him, but said it would provide an update once Minassian arrived in court. The Richmond Hill man stands accused of jumping the sidewalk with a rented van and ramming pedestrians along a 2.2 kilometre-stretch of Yonge St, between Sheppard Ave. and Finch Ave. Monday afternoon. Ten people have died of their injuries so far, while another 15 remain in hospital.
