A 25-year-old Brampton man is facing half a dozen charges after someone attempted to drive over police cruisers at a Tim Hortons drive-thru in Mississauga this week.
Peel police were called to the Westwood Mall area near Goreway Drive and Etude Drive in Mississauga at around 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday following reports of a suspicious vehicle.
Video circulating online shows multiple PRP officers pulling up in their cruisers as the driver of a Ford Bronco is seen at the Tim Hortons drive-thru. One officer is seen with their gun drawn.
“Officers located the vehicle at a Tim Horton’s drive-thru, and in addition to the possession of stolen property, officers determined that the vehicle was stolen,” police said in a statement on Wednesday. “Officers surrounded the vehicle in order to stop it from fleeing. The driver attempted to flee in the vehicle but was taken into custody. Damage was caused to the police cruisers. The suspect suffered minor injuries.”
Ramanpreet Singh from Brampton faces multiple offences, including flight from police, dangerous operation, and obstructing a police officer.
The investigation is ongoing.
