Nobody called us:’ Mother of teen killed outside Toronto school says she wasn’t notified of stabbing

TORONTO -- The mother of a 15-year-old boy who was killed in a stabbing at a Toronto high school said that no one had called her to let her know that her son was critically injured and was being taken to the hospital. Grade 11 student Maahir Dosani was one of three teenagers who was injured in a stabbing outside of Victoria Park Collegiate Institute in North York around 3 p.m. on Tuesday. He was found unconscious on school grounds by police with a stab wound to his torso and was rushed to hospital with critical injuries.. At the time, Dosani’s mother did not know about what had happened. She told CTV News Toronto that she became worried when her son didn’t pick up his phone after class was dismissed.“I was trying to call him and he was not answering his phone, which is very, very unusual. He always answers his phone,” Muskaan Dosani said. “I messaged one of his friends who said ‘he’s in the hospital. ’”Muskaan did not know what hospital her son was being taken to, so she started calling patient lines and someone suggested she try Sunnybrook Hospital.

When she arrived at Sunnybrook around 6:30 p.m., she says she was told her son had arrived without vital signs.“We didn’t get any calls from the hospital. Nobody called us,” she said. Half an hour later, police confirmed on social media that Maahir had succumbed to his injuries. “We are still in shock,” Muskaan said, fighting back tears. “We could never imagine that this would happen to my son because he was such a good kid.” According to his mother, the Grade 11 student was a sweet kid whose dream was to become a dentist.. The director of education with the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) reiterated Wednesday that Maahir “was a conscientious student who was respectful and engaged in class.”
