Situation 'contained' at University of Toronto Mississauga campus, police say
Peel police say a situation at the University of Toronto Mississauga campus is "contained" after students were told to shelter in place due to an "active incident" Monday night.
TORONTO - Ontario's police watchdog has launched an investigation into the serious injury of a 14-year-old boy during an arrest at a Toronto transit station last month. According to the Special Investigations Unit (SIU), a group of youths had allegedly failed to pay their transit fare at the TTC Finch West station around 3:30 p.m. on October 7.
Two officers confronted the youths, resulting in an interaction with the teenager. The boy was subsequently arrested, released, and later hospitalized with a serious but non-life-threatening injury. The SIU has assigned three investigators to the case, designating one subject officer and one witness officer. Police learned of the injury on October 9 and reported it to the SIU on the same day.
