Gabriel Neil, 18, who dreamed of becoming an army doctor, is being mourned after a fatal assault mere days into his studies in London, Ont.

Neil, whose relatives could not be reached for comment Monday, graduated from a Barrie high school in June and moved to London to attend Western. His family moved to Simcoe, south of London, shortly after his graduation.

Aliyan Ahmed, 21, of London is charged with manslaughter in Neil’s death. Court documents show Ahmed doesn’t have a criminal record. He remains in custody after his arrest, police said. “The Western community is grieving this tragic loss and we are heartbroken for his family, friends and all who knew him,” Shepard said. “We are reminding our campus community that counselling services are available to support students, faculty and staff during this difficult time.”Article content

Several students who saw Neil transported to hospital are traumatized by what they witnessed, said one Western student who offered onlookers support.

Phantuums Why is it “fatally assaulted” if he was murdered? This sounds like you’re trying to dance around what happened

He was murdered why does this say assaulted?

Why such strange phrasing in the use of “fatally assaulted”

Let’s call it what it is folks. Hate crime! How many of the alleged rapists were Muslim

F&$K Aliyan Ahmed….scum

readers are your Conservative and PPC voters. Racists and Xenophobic to the core. Look how they take the sad tragedy of the loss of this young man's life and turn it into politics and hatred.

Omg. How awful.

“Ahmed”, Diversity + Proximity = Murder

The comments on this article are just vile. Is this who the National Posts readers are? e.g.

Jesus Christ. What is wrong with people today? I feel so sorry for his family. I can't imagine how they feel right now. So tragic. My deepest condolences. 💐

I'm guessing the killer was 'diverse.' Diversity sucks.

Hi ! What in the living fuck is a “fatal assault”? Kid was murdered. Is there something about his assailant that is preventing you from using that kind of language?

Western's reputation must be plummeting between this and the (alleged) 30+ sexual assaults over the weekend.

Fatally assaulted? He was killed.

The death sentence needs to be brought back for his murderer. Fucking sickening.
