Philippines Daily Headlines


In a report a Canadian Police officer controlling traffic at a Canadian Football League game was struck by a car at high speed and then attacked with a knife. 

"We believe the individual acted alone," Edmonton police Chief Rod Knecht said early Sunday, adding that police would investigate the possible involvement of others.

Knecht confirmed that a black ISIS flag was seized from a car where the police officer was attacked. The officer was not critically injured.

"Based on evidence at the scenes and the actions of the suspect ... it was determined that these incidents are being investigated as acts of terrorism," Knecht said.

A 30-year-old man was arrested two hours later after a police chase.
