Toronto police are searching for a man who allegedly broke an ankle bracelet monitor and fled after being ordered to remain at a residence.
Investigators say Marvin Hernandez-Viera of Toronto — who was 22 at the time — was arrested in 2019 and charged with attempted murder.
He was instructed by the court to wear an ankle monitor and stay with a surety, police confirmed in a news release.
At approximately 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Hernandez-Viera allegedly cut off his ankle bracelet and escaped. Police say he’s now wanted for obstructing justice and failing to comply with recognizance.
Hernandez-Viera is known to be violent and dangerous, and police are urging the public not to approach him. If seen, people are being asked to contact 9-1-1 immediately.
The investigation is ongoing.
