Mike Cabana, deputy commissioner of federal policing for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and Assistant Commissioner Jennifer Strachan speak at a news conference Thursday, August 11, to discuss what the RCMP are calling a terrorism incident that took place the day before in Strathroy, Ontario. Behind them is video footage of Aaron Driver, a 24-year-old man they say was in the final stages of a terror attack targeting an urban center during rush hour. Driver was shot and killed by police after detonating an explosive device in a cab.
