Region of Peel – Investigators from the Central Robbery Bureau have laid charges against three men, after a victim had his vehicle and property stolen in Brampton.
On October 9, 2021, at approximately 8 p.m., the victims were driving in a vehicle in the area of Williams Parkway and Elbern Markell Drive in the City of Brampton, when their vehicle was intentionally struck from behind by an SUV, which was later discovered to be stolen.
The victims, fearing for their safety, fled the area to a residence, but were followed by four suspects who then brandished a firearm and proceeded to steal the victims vehicle and a quantity of electronics located within.
Investigators from the Central Robbery Bureau, 22 Division Criminal Investigations Bureau and the Strategic Tactical Enforcement Patrol (STEP) unit worked collaboratively, and were able to locate the victims vehicle and the stolen SUV at a location in the City of Toronto, and were able to arrest two men operating the cars. A third man was arrested at a location in the City of Brampton.
“This was a very fluid investigation that required officers to cross jurisdictional boundaries, which ultimately led them to locate, arrest and bring the suspects before the courts,” said Nick Milinovich, Deputy Chief of Investigative and Emergency Services. “Their coordinated efforts have without a doubt contributed to the safety and well-being of the communities we protect”.
