Rabbi Levi Bialo, a teacher in Cheder Chabad of Toronto and director of youth activities in Beis Chabad of Markham, was killed this morning in a dreadful train accident in the middle of the city. Bialo, in his early twenties, had just completed Shacharis and was on his way to escort his wife to the Chabad School, which he never reached. The time of the livaya will be announced shortly.
It is noteworthy that this has been the fourth tragedy, which has hit Toronto's frum community recently. A similar incident occurred on Erev Pesach, in which the 22 year old son of Rabbi Mordechai Levine, head of the Kashrus System in Toronto was killed in an accident.

A 25-year-old Thornhill man was killed yesterday morning after driving his car under the barrier at a level crossing north of the city and stopping in the path of an onrushing GO train.
Police are investigating whether Levi Bialo was blinded by sun as he drove onto the tracks in Richmond Hill, a spot that was marked by drop-down barriers, flashing lights and a bell.
