As Jeff Semple reports, the city is also rallying around the lone survivor, nine-year-old Fayez Afzaal, as new details surface about the prime suspect.

Kamil Karamali spoke with some of the victims' loved ones, who wish to grieve in private, but say they've been touched by the outpouring of support from Canadians.
