A man is facing several charges after police say worshippers at a mosque in Mississauga, Ont., were attacked with bear spray in what authorities believe was a "hate-motivated incident." Some people suffered "minor injuries" from the bear spray, police said. Hasan said there were remnants of the bear spray in the building, still causing people to cough by Saturday afternoon. Nadia Hasan, chief operating officer of the National Council of Canadian Muslims, speaks with reporters outside the Dar Al-Tawheed Islamic Centre in Mississauga on Saturday morning. The attack on congregants at the Dar Al-Tawheed Islamic Centre is incredibly disturbing.
