Tim was on his way home to Manitoba after working at a carnival in Alberta. The bus was bound for Winnipeg, Manitoba and the route was along the Yellowhead Highway and through Saskatchewan. Li, described as a tall man in his 40s, with a shaved head and sunglasses, originally sat near the front of the bus, but moved to sit next to McLean following a scheduled rest stop. Twenty two year old Tim McLean got on to the 1170 Greyhound bus at Edmonton, Aberta, Canada. At 6:55 p.m., the bus departed from a stop in Erickson, Manitoba with a new passenger, Vince Weiguang Li. He sat at the rear, one row ahead of the washroom. He departed Edmonton on board Greyhound bus 1170 to Winnipeg, via the Yellowhead Highway through Saskatchewan. on July 30, 2008, Tim McLean, a carnival worker, was returning home to Manitoba after working at a fair in Alberta. The incident took place near Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, during a trip from Edmonton to McLean's hometown of Winnipeg.Īt 12:01 a.m. On March 5, 2009, McLean's killer, 40-year-old Vince Weiguang Li (simplified Chinese: 李伟光 traditional Chinese: 李偉光 pinyin: Lǐ Wěiguāng), was found to be not criminally responsible for the murder. McLean, a 22-year-old Canadian man, was stabbed, beheaded and cannibalized while riding a Greyhound Canada bus about 18 miles (29 km) west of Portage La Prairie, Manitoba traveling the Trans Canada Highway. After that, Tim would always acknowledge me as I passed through the midway, signalling the other carnies that I was cool.” Now Ryder has a message for Canadians: “Instead of being out for blood, be like Tim and reach out to those around you who are at a disadvantage-like Tim did for me.The murder of Tim McLean (born 1985) occurred on the evening of July 30, 2008. Ryder says he would never have been brought into the carny circle if not for McLean. “You can’t just walk in and establish yourself.” “It’s a tightknit family,” McLean told him. He said, T need to talk to you.’ ” Ryder says McLean “schooled him” about carny life. “He asked me to stay put and then went underneath the trailer, grabbed two beers, and shoved one of them at my chest. I was metres from the friend’s trailer.” Out of the blue, McLean appeared, stopping Ryder. I’m six feet, 200 lb., a big guy, and Tim was a little guy. She whispered to me about how this guy was a jerk and had been spreading rumours about her.” Ryder decided to confront the man. “In previous summers,” says Ryder, “she had dated a close friend and co-worker of Tim’s. When he arrived he didn’t know anyone except the woman who was his girlfriend at the time. Les Ryder, 31, worked the game booths with McLean last summer in Edmonton. “When you live and work together, you’re bound to get into some brawls. McLean was the consummate intermediary, she says. “We were all telling her to cash in her ticket and buy a plane ticket,” said Benson. Benson says carnies at the party pleaded with a colleague not to take the bus back home to Edmonton the next day. Mr McLean made a self-represented bail application at Geelong Magistrates Court, pleading with the magistrate to release him from remand so he could 'get his life back on track'. “So many people were breaking down, both men and women,” says Kay Benson, 22, a friend of McLean’s who had worked with him in game booths throughout Western Canada and Ontario. Timothy McLean, 28, was arrested on Monday after police searched his property at Terang, east of Warrnambool. Three days after their colleague’s murder on a Greyhound bus, employees of the Regina Buffalo Days exhibition held a party for Tim McLean on the exhibition grounds.
