Toronto, Dec 13 (IANS) Police in Canada have charged and arrested a Sikh man after he "intentionally" ran a police cruiser off the roadway in a stolen vehicle in the city of Brampton.
In July 2021, Gauravdeep Singh was seen operating a stolen vehicle around Hurontario Street and County Court Boulevard in Brampton, the Peel Regional Police said.
Singh made "intentional contact with a police cruiser, causing it to leave the roadway and make good on his escape".
Following the incident, an arrest warrant was issued for Singh, and he was arrested late last month.
Singh has been charged with 12 offences, including theft of a motor vehicle, possession of stolen property and flight from a police officer.
"It is a miracle that there were no serious injuries in this incident as this individual attempted to harm our officers, who accept the inherent risks associated with their jobs to keep our community safe," Peel Regional Police Deputy Chief, Marc Andrews, said in a statement.
Two federal sources familiar with the plan say it will look to double some GST payments for six months, include help for Canadians struggling to pay their rent and launch the first step of a national dental-care program.
The succession from the Queen to her eldest son Charles is automatic, without any disruption to governing bodies that sit in her name or to legislation, oaths and other legal documents issued in her name. "The phrase 'The Queen is dead, long live the King!' applies here and in the U.K."
Rohit has not gone missing before and all attempts to contact him has been negative. Police and family are concerned for his well-being. Rohit is described as South Asian male, 5’7” tall, 141 lbs, with a black beard and balding black hair. His last known clothing description is unknown.
With the death of Queen Elizabeth II announced Thursday, Charles is set to take over as Canada's new head of state. Most recently, Charles and his wife, Camilla, travelled to Canada in May as part of the celebrations of the Queen's platinum jubilee. The three-day tour was focused on climate change, literacy and reconciliation efforts with Indigenous peoples.
Queen Elizabeth II, the longest-serving British monarch and Canadian head of state, has died. She was 96. Buckingham Palace announced her death in a statement.
Police say the suspect is in the area and is described as dishevelled. He has curly, black hair and light skin and was wearing a dark hoodie and grey shirt. They say he is considered dangerous and should not be approached.
