The driver and two other men made an attempt to rescue McLean, but were chased away by Li, who slashed at them from behind the locked bus doors. After the attack began, the bus driver pulled to the side of the road, and he and all the other passengers fled the vehicle. McLean 'barely acknowledged' Li, then fell asleep against the window pane, headphones covering his ears.Īccording to witnesses, McLean was sleeping with his headphones on when the man sitting next to him suddenly produced a large knife and began stabbing him in the neck and chest. Li, described as a tall man in his 40s, with a shaved head and sunglasses, originally sat near the front of the bus, but moved to sit next to McLean following a scheduled rest stop.

At 6:55 P.M., the bus departed from a stop in Erickson, Manitoba, with a new passenger, Vince Weiguang Li. He sat at the rear, one row ahead of the toilet. He departed Edmonton on board Greyhound bus 1170 to Winnipeg, via the Yellowhead Highway through Saskatchewan. on July 30, 2008, Tim McLean, a carnival barker, was returning home to Winnipeg after working at a fair in Edmonton.
