Peel Regional Police shared video surveillance of a home invasion robbery in 2021, during which multiple suspects allegedly robbed residents of their cash and carjacked a high-end vehicle.
Investigators say the home-invasion-style robbery occurred sometime around 1:30 a.m. on September 3, 2021, in Mississauga.
Police claim five suspects forced their way into the home and demanded the occupant’s vehicles and money. One suspect then discharged their gun into the ground, but police say no one was physically hurt.
All five suspects are described as male, last seen wearing masks, dark hooded sweaters, dark pants and gloves.

Some perpetrators managed to steal a white 2021 Bentley Bentayga while the others fled in a Nissan Murano. Police say the stolen Bentley has since been recovered.
Peel police: Suspects may have committed more carjacking crimes
Officers say that the five men are considered armed and dangerous as police believe these individuals have carried out similar crimes in the GTA.
Peel police are seeking the public’s help in identifying these men and hope to gather more information on the home invasion and stolen Bentley.
These suspects should not be approached if seen, and police are urging anyone with details to call 9-1-1 immediately.
Toronto police and other GTA officers have stressed the urgency to crack down on violent carjacking crimes.
As a result, task forces have been assembled to leverage a more significant police presence to catch carjacking perpetrators in the act.
