Cathy Riddell has lived in Toronto's Yonge and Finch neighbourhood for over six decades; it's an area where she says she's surrounded by familiar faces, shops and restaurants. On a warm Monday in April 2018, Riddell was eager to be outside and run errands in the sunshine. However, her day was interrupted when a white rental van wreaked havoc in the neighbourhood she called home. On April 23, 2018, a white rental van mounted the sidewalk at the southwest corner of the intersection of Yonge and Finch streets and travelled south for several blocks Riddell was one of the victims who was struck by the van while walking on Yonge Street. At 1:27 p.m., the first call was made to 911. The attack would last approximately seven minutes as witnesses watched in horror while innocent bystanders got struck by the white van. After driving 2.2 km, the van stopped at Poyntz Avenue because a beverage splattered across the windshield, making it difficult for the driver to see. The driver got out of the van. The tragedy left the Toronto community heartbroken and grieving for the victims who lost their lives that day. Riddell remembered very little about what happened that day. On this episode of Global News' What happened to…?, Erica Vella revisits the Toronto Van Attack to speak to a victim who was heavily impacted by the attack. She also speaks with Insp. Graham Gibson about his experience as a detective on the scene, and with reporter Catherine Mcdonald, who begins to unravel the motives behind the driver's attack.

Season 1 is all about making the switch. There is a problem. So many of us end up heading down a more conventional route at the beginning of our careers, and discover we have missed a trick. We can end up unhappy, frustrated or unfulfilled, and find ourselves searching for a more creative route. maybe it's a dream we once had, maybe it's something we used to have a passion for.
