rfmcdonaldThe Toronto Star's Diana Hall notes that the diggers of the mysterious tunnel found this January by York University have been found, and that their motives for doing so were not criminal at all.
I wonder if these two might later come out and identify themselves, or if they might be identified by someone else.
It wasn’t Al Qaeda. It wasn’t future Pan Am Games spectators eager to get closer to the action. According to Toronto Police, the mysterious tunnel discovered in January near York University and the Rexall Centre, a site of the upcoming Pan Am Games, was simply built as a place for a couple of guys to hang out.
“There was nothing nefarious, there was nothing criminal, it was literally them doing it for a place to hang out,” Const. Victor Kwong said of the two builders who have no background in engineering.

Police were able to identify two men in their 20s who “built the tunnel for personal reasons” and confirmed that there was never any “criminal intent nor any threat to the people or city of Toronto,” according to a statement.
After significant media attention generated “enormous interest” in the case, police received information on Feb. 27, which led them to identifying the two men who built the tunnel.
Police aren’t releasing any more information about the builders, who are not facing any criminal charges.
I wonder if these two might later come out and identify themselves, or if they might be identified by someone else.
