CANADA: Muslim men sacrifice a sheep in the park to celebrate start of Ramadan

Toronto Police are seeking advice from a Crown attorney to determine if any charges apply to two men who allegedly sacrificed a sheep in a North York park for good luck.

Toronto Sun (H/T Susan K)   Police were called by a woman claiming she saw someone trying to escape from the trunk of a car. She managed to get the licence plate and officers later found the vehicle in the Islington and Finch Aves. area park.
Officers found duct tape, binding twine and excrement inside the trunk. Moments after finding the car, two men came running towards the car and they were taken into custody, sources said.
But they told officers that they had sacrificed a sheep, which they bought for about $150 from a farm near Hwy. 27 in York Region, and slaughtered it for good luck (for Ramadan). Stunned officers found the sheep, the bloodied rock where the slaughter occurred and a ceramic bowl used in some sort of religious rite to ensure good fortune, along with two bloodied knives and a meat cleaver.
