Original Toronto Star caption: The underbrush along Rosedale Valley Rd. near the Mt. Pleasant bridge is searched yesterday for a bullet or a trace of a sniper after bystanders thought a shot had been fired at Police Cadet John R. Dower. Police now believe a truck backfired after stalling; and a number of transients sleeping under the bridge scurried away; causing people to think someone had fled.
