Toronto police have recovered more than 1,000 vehicles worth an estimated $60 million during a year-long investiggation into the thefts of autos and catalytic converters in the city’s west end.
Police said vehicles, mostly high-end ones, were stolen from the driveways of homes, from hotel and airport parking lots, and from local attractions, like Woodbine Casino. Aside from releasing the probe’s final results, Demkiw also assured the public that Toronto Police Service is “continuing to take action against rising auto thefts in our city.”
“The level of violence being used in the commission of these crimes represents a new and evolving threat to public safety,” he said. Taverner noted that since 2019 the number of auto thefts across Toronto has more than doubled and is a “significant issue” for police, one that they are continuing to tackle.
