Tiktoker faces backlash for selfie near Canadian dad slain at Starbucks

A TikToker who recorded a Canadian dad being fatally stabbed in front of his daughter and fiancée at a Starbucks is facing backlash after he allegedly took a selfie next to the victim’s body and smiled while filming the horrifying scene.

Alex Bodger shot a sickening video of Paul Stanley Schmidt being attacked outside the Vancouver coffee shop on Sunday after asking his alleged assailant to not to vape in front of his 3-year-old daughter, the Toronto Sun reported.

Bodger — who goes by Gora Pakora on TikTok — appeared to smirk when he shot the unfolding incident, according to the news outlet.

“This motherf— just died, bro. He just died, bro, holy f—!” he exclaimed, drawing the wrath of people who slammed him for capitalizing on a ghastly crime.

“This is the TikTok generation. I fear for our disgusting future,” one Twitter user wrote.

Another wrote, “I was so disgusted by his actions and words that I honestly was speechless… No emotion period.”

But Bodger told Global News that he was traumatized by the event.

“It’s not something you think you would see walking down the street in Vancouver on a Sunday,” Bodger told the outlet. “Every time I think about the situation I get this feeling in my chest which is pure fear.”

But according to one Twitter user, Bodger also took a selfie next to the victim’s body and even returned the following day to smoke at the crime scene.

The man later posted a video in which he tried to explain his actions — saying he tends to smile during “uncomfortable situations.”

“So I’m walking down the road, I thought I see a street fight … so I start running over there. I start videotaping and I see some blood an d so I just thought maybe there was a bloody nose or something,” he says in the video.

“My brain wasn’t allowing me to believe what was happening. And I knew he was dead, but at the same time, this my first time ever experiencing this right so like, my brain is just like ‘he’s dead’ so I start screaming,” Bodger says.

“The murderer is standing right there, all that’s going through my head is like, ‘Holy f—, I’m standing right here screaming he’s dead … what if he come at me and f— kills me.’ But I’m in so much shock just standing there,” he continues.

Bodger then goes on to explain his “controversial” smile.


The brutal attack was caught in a horrifying video captured by the bystander.

The suspect, 32-year-old Inderdeep Singh Gosa (pictured), has been charged with murder.

“I was so uncomfortable. I didn’t know what just happened. That’s how I always am in uncomfortable situations,” he says. “I put a little bit of a smile on my face. I’m sorry for the people that it pissed off.”

The TikToker then bizarrely goes on to say: “Yeah, this s— (the stabbing), it doesn’t faze me too much. I’ll just say human life, to me, the way I look at it, if I don’t know you, is meaningless … he’s dead. What can we do now?”

The suspect, 32-year-old Inderdeep Singh Gosa, was arrested inside the Starbucks and was charged with second-degree murder.

Schmidt’s mother, Kathy Schmidt, said she was told the suspect attacked her son after he asked him not to vape in front of 3-year-old Erica.

The 37-year-old dad’s fiancée, Ashley Umali, was getting drinks at the time of the bloody attack but witnessed her partner’s last breaths.

“This is so horribly wrong what happened. He was just trying to protect his daughter. I’m angry and I’m sad,” Schmidt said. “It all started because he was vaping beside the baby. Ashley’s in shock — she watched the whole thing. She’s so devastated.”

The family and police have urged people not to share the shocking footage of the savage attack.

NYC 13-year-old charged with murdering teen after school

A 13-year-old boy has been charged with murdering an older Brooklyn teen during an after-school fight over a girl, cops said Monday. 

Two other boys, ages 14 and 15 — and both with previous felony arrests — were busted in the heinous crime as well, charged with assault and gang-assault raps, police said.

The three young accused hoods turned themselves in to police Sunday night in the fatal stabbing of 17-year-old high-school senior Nyheem Wright, who was killed in front of his twin brother in a parking lot in Coney Island on the afternoon of Jan. 20.

The suspects’ names were not released by the NYPD because of their ages.

The oldest suspect has been busted in the past for assault, grand larceny and criminal possession of a loaded firearm, cops said.

The 14-year-old has been arrested for two previous robberies, police said. 

The busts come as the NYPD grapples with what city Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell has called a “deficient” juvenile criminal-justice system hampered by the state’s “Raise the Age” statute.

The statute, signed into law by former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, took effect in October 2019, upping the age for a teen to face adult charges to 18, from the previous 16- and 17-year-old threshold.

Since then, police statistics show drastically fewer arrests in the seven major crimes and gun cases for under-18 suspects.

Cops said Nyheem’s senseless slaying stemmed from a dispute over a girl, and the teen’s mother, Simone Brooks, has told The Post that his stricken sibling, Raheem, “stayed with his twin brother the whole time,” trying to help him and then watching him die.

“I was on the phone with [Raheem] … and when the ambulance came, they kept saying, ‘[Nyheem’s] losing a lot of blood, he’s losing a lot of blood!’ ” Brooks said.


Two of the arrested teens have prior felony arrests, cops said.

Brooks said Nyheem’s wound severed a major artery.

“There was nothing anyone could have done because the blood would just drain right out,” she said.

The principal of Nyheem’s school, K728 Liberation Diploma Plus High School, spent the night at the hospital with the family trying to help comfort them before his death, Brooks said.

After the teen’s death, city schools Chancellor David Banks tweeted, “I spoke with the young man’s principal this evening, who described him as a joyful leader.

“He was on the verge of graduation, and was a hard worker who took an active role in leading other young people at his school,” Banks wrote of Nyheem.


Nyheem Wright was remembered by his principal as a “joyful leader.”

Brooks told The Post before the arrests that she wanted the “little punks” who killed her son to pay. 

“These ones nowadays, they all want to pull weapons,” Brooks, 50, said at the time. “They don’t want to fight it out because they’re just little punks.”

“We want justice for my son Nyheem because he did not deserve this, and we are not OK.”

Antonio Brown, suspect in murder of Atlanta grandmother, allegedly stole vodka before home break-in

The man accused of stabbing a 77-year-old woman to death inside her Atlanta home was reportedly intoxicated and stole a bottle of vodka from a liquor store before the killing.

Antonio Brown, 23, allegedly walked out of a nearby package store with a bottle of vodka before hopping the fence into the affluent gated community in Buckhead where police say he slaughtered Eleanor Bowles in a botched carjacking Saturday.

Brown tried to buy a $20 bottle of Absolut Vodka from Buckhead’s Best Wine & Spirits around 11:30 a.m., but was turned away because “he was already intoxicated,” according to a police report obtained by The Post.

A store employee told police that he then “snatched” the bottle and walked out of the store on Northside Parkway NW. She said staffers tried to stop him, but he was acting “aggressive.”

The employee said Brown was known by locals and was “always under the influence.” She said she and others believed he was homeless, according to the report.

Antonio Brown was arrested Monday and charged with murder, aggravated battery, possession of a knife, elder abuse and hijacking a motor vehicle.

About a half hour after the shoplifting, Brown entered the community where Bowles lived, broke into her home and allegedly stabbed the grandmother multiple times in the garage, officials said.

Brown was trying to steal Bowles’ 2021 Lexus RS350 when she interrupted, police believe.

He is accused of stabbing her to death and taking off in the car, which was recovered later that night.

Bowles’ lifeless body was found in her garage by her son several hours later around 5:30 p.m., police said.

He was coming to visit his mother for the holidays when he made the heartbreaking discovery.

Eleanor Bowles, 77, was found hours after the slaying by her son.

“I was on my way to visit her for the holidays and got to her a few hours too late,” Michael Bowles told FOX 5. “Finding her like that is something that will be with me forever. What happened to her was her worst nightmare. It’s most people’s worst nightmare.”

Brown was arrested Monday and charged with murder, aggravated battery, possession of a knife, elder abuse and hijacking a motor vehicle. He was booked into Fulton County jail.

Sixth person on lease of Idaho house where 4 students killed

Idaho authorities revealed Thursday that a sixth person was listed on the lease of the home where four University of Idaho students were brutally killed last month.

The individual was not believed to be home at the time of the stabbings.

The latest update comes as authorities remain without a suspect or suspects in the tragic slayings of Ethan Chapin and Xana Kernodle, who were in a relationship, and Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves, who were best friends growing up, in the early morning of Nov. 13.

The sixth person was not identified by Moscow police.

The home has two bedrooms on each of the three floors.

Kernodle, Mogen and Goncalves were all roommates at the home on King Road while Chapin was staying the night.

The murdered college students were on the second and third floors the night of the murders with two other surviving roommates, Bethany Funke and Dylan Mortensen, were also home on the first floor and slept through the attack, police said.

“Detectives are aware of a sixth person listed on the lease at the residence but do not believe that individual was present during the incident,” Moscow police stated.

A view of the kitchen of the home where the four victims were killed.

The house had three floors and several common rooms including the kitchen.

The house has been the center of the cops’ probe into the murders.

The local police department also clarified Thursday that investigators believe the attack was targeted after they confusingly said the day before the detectives weren’t sure if the residence or any occupants were specifically targeted.

“We remain consistent in our belief that this was a targeted attack, but investigators have not concluded if the target was the residence or if it was the occupants,” Moscow police said in its latest update.

Ethan Chapin and Xana Kernodle were dating.

Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves were best friends.

The conflicting statements came after Latah County Prosecutor Bill Thompson said in an interview Tuesday the house was specifically targeted and then said early Wednesday one of the victims was targeted, which police refuted.

The Idaho State Police forensics team have worked the case for weeks, Moscow police also said Thursday, and has provided “testing and analysis results” to detectives.

“As they complete additional tests, those results will also be provided,” Moscow police said. “To protect the investigation’s integrity, specific results will not be released.”

Baby-faced suspect stabs, bites teen in NYC subway melee over vaping: cops

The city’s latest subway crimes include a teenager being bitten and stabbed by a baby-faced suspect when the victim confronted a group of people vaping on a Brooklyn platform, cops say.

Two days earlier, a trio of creeps also mugged a 21-year-old man of his cell phone as he waited for an F train in Queens, authorities said. 

The bitten 19-year-old victim had been waiting for a C train at Pennsylvania Avenue in East New York around 2:45 p.m. Wednesday when he clashed with six people who were vaping nearby, authorities said. 

The young-looking suspect, shown in surveillance images released by the NYPD on Sunday night, then knifed the victim in the torso and bit him on the forearm, cops said. 

A surveillance photo shows the baby-faced suspect in the attack on a 19-year-old victim inside the Pennsylvania Avenue station.

The victim was taken to Interfaith Medical Center, where he was listed in stable condition.

Last month, three creeps mugged a man of his phone in Queens, authorities said. 

Video shows a trio mugging a 21-year-old man as he waited for an F train at Parsons Boulevard.

That victim was standing on the platform at the Parsons Boulevard station in Jamaica Hills around 8 a.m. Nov. 21 when the group surrounded him, punched him in the face and grabbed his phone, video released by the NYPD shows. 

The victim refused medical attention, cops said. 

Police are still looking to track down the suspects.

Bronx mom Dimone Fleming charged after 2 children found dead

The mother of two young boys whose bodies were found in the bathtub of their Bronx home has been charged with murder in their stabbing deaths — after she shared a quote on Facebook about wanting kids to know they’re always safe at home.

Dimone Fleming, 22, was charged at the 46th Precinct late Sunday with two counts each of murder, intention to commit murder and murder: depraved indifference to a person less than 11-years-old.

Her sons – 11-month-old Octavius Canada and 3-year-old DeShawn Fleming – were found dead Saturday night in their apartment at a homeless shelter at 246 Echo Place in Mount Hope.

The boys each had “multiple stab wounds” to the neck and torso, Deputy Chief Louis Deceglie told reporters.

Just hours before the boys were found, Fleming shared a quote on social media about parents wanting to protect their children.

Dimone Fleming shared a post on Facebook about how children should feel safe at home.

“I want my children to always know … if the relationship ain’t working COME HOME! If the bills become overwhelming COME HOME! If you feel unsafe COME HOME! If something don’t feel right COME HOME!” the post, originally written by another Facebook user and shared by the mom Saturday morning, said.

“I want my kids to always know they can come home … I never believed in the saying ‘they 18 they grown,’” the post continues.

DeShawn Fleming and Octavius Canada were found dead in a bathtub.

Fleming had been taken into custody as a person of interest before the children were found after cops responded to the apartment on a report of a woman “acting irrationally” and igniting things in the kitchen.

She was found naked on the third floor, police said.

However, cops didn’t notice the slain boys buried under a pile of clothes in the bathtub when they took her away.

The young victims had “multiple stab wounds” to their necks and torsos, Deputy Chief Louis Deceglie said.

A neighbor had told police that the kids’ dad had them, authorities said.

Police returned to the shelter about 8 p.m. after a 911 call from the frantic dad, Columbus Canada, 31, who found his sons’ lifeless bodies.

On Sunday, law enforcement sources told The Post that Fleming may have killed her sons because she believed they were possessed.

“She made statements about the devil — unusual statements,” a police source said.

Mourners gather at a memorial for the slain young brothers outside a Bronx shelter.

In an earlier Facebook post, the mom also chillingly wrote:  “It’s only one true God and I repent from all wrong doings and negative influence. Leaving all things that’s no longer serves me…… Thank you for your mercy.”

The woman was previously investigated by the Administration for Children’s Services after DeShawn was born, according to sources, who said she was suspected of improperly caring for the boy.

Two London teens stabbed to death one mile apart

Two 16-year-old boys were stabbed to death in Greenwich, England just one mile from one another Saturday night, the latest in a violent rash sweeping through the city.

The unnamed teenagers were found injured with stab wounds in Abbey Wood and Thamesmead just past 5:00 p.m., London’s Metropolitan Police said.

The boys died later that night, cops said.

“Given the proximity in time and distance of the incidents, officers will be seeking to urgently establish any link between them,” the Met said.

At least four others were stabbed across the city in November, with two succumbing to their injuries.

Keisha Christodoulou, 32, was stabbed to death inside ar Tanner’s Hill home on the first day of the month. Police believe 33-year-old Leon Murray killed her and that the two had known one another before the stabbing.

Three teenagers were arrested for the fatal stabbing of Gabriel Petrov Stoyanov, 21, on Bromley Road Nov. 4. George David, 16, went on the lam, but was arrested several weeks later along with two unnamed 14- and 17-year-old boys.

The boys are the latest in a string of unrelated stabbings to sweep the city.

Two others have died from stabbings this month.

Two men were charged after a man in his 40s was stabbed in Queen’s Road, Twickenham on Nov. 18. The victim was taken to the hospital and his condition was assessed as not life-threatening.

The next day, a man in his 20s was stabbed in the leg at the junction of Lion Road and Bexleyheath Broadway in Bexleyheath. Two men, aged 24 and 25, were arrested in connection to the crime.

Suspect in Queens triple homicide reveals grisly details on slays: sources

The Queens man accused of fatally stabbing three female relatives provided grisly details of the triple slaying while being grilled by NYPD detectives in Virginia — and now awaits extradition to the Big Apple, law-enforcement sources said Monday.

Jabari Burrell, 22, waived his Miranda Rights and gave cops specific details on how he killed each of his victims, including a 65-year-old woman who died futilely trying to shield her wheelchair-bound 26-year-old stepdaughter, sources said.

Burrell allegedly stole the older woman’s 2004 Toyota Sienna after the Springfield Garden murders Friday and drove to Virginia, where he was nabbed Sunday when the vehicle ran out of gas on I-95.

An NYPD spokesman said police have begun the process to bring Burrell back to Queens.

“He’s waiting to be extradited, and charges remain pending at this point,” the rep said.

A representative for the Queens District Attorney’s Office said Burrell is facing three counts each of first-degree and second-degree murder and will also be charged with criminal possession of a weapon.

Burrell is accused of fatally stabbing Hyacinth Brown-Johnson, 65, her 47-year-old daughter, Latoya Gordon — who is the suspect’s aunt — and Brown-Johnson’s stepdaughter, Patrice Johnson, cops said.

Police said three women were stabbed to death in their Queens home Friday.

Sources said the deadly rampage erupted after Burrell was smoking marijuana in the house and got into an argument — then snapped and turned on the women.

An alert was put out for the suspect after the crime, and Virginia State Police arrested him when his car conked out on the highway and notified the NYPD.

A rep for the Virginia State Police Department referred all questions about the case to the NYPD.

Three women were stabbed to death Friday at this 182nd Street home in Queens.
