Toronto police say there may be court delays this morning due to a work refusal at the Toronto South Detention Centre.
Police say the majority of staff members at the jail are involved in the work refusal, which appears to have been prompted by an attack on employees on Saturday.
Warren “Smokey” Thomas, the president of the Ontario Public Service Union, which represents workers at the detention centre, said eight correctional officers were injured following the incident. Their conditions are not known at this time.
