Noah Rabbani, 15, was walking home from a friend’s house last weekend late at night in Hamilton, Ontario, when two men got out of a car next to where he was walking. One of the men was holding a baseball bat, a police press release quoted by CBC said.”The males approached the boy and struck him with the bat several times causing serious injuries… The suspects ran back to the car and left in an unknown direction,” the police said. Hamilton Police Constable Asif Khokhar said an investigation is ongoing and that detectives are “looking at all aspects.”The Saltfleet District High School student was shifted to an intensive care unit and had to undergo surgery to repair a crack in his skull which has left him with impaired movement on the right side of his body.The teenager was able to reach his grandmother’s house a few doors away and provide a brief description of the attackers. Rabbani’s aunt Huma Aslam said the assault came as ‘a total shock’.”Here we are in Canada, the greatest country in the world. I’m just really in shock,” Aslam said.
