Accident – Death – Obituary News :
Residents in a North York neighbourhood raised concerns about drug use and trafficking, prompting Toronto police to take action. Following community complaints, officers from 31 Division conducted an investigation in the area of Jane Street and Wilson Avenue.
During a routine foot patrol, officers stumbled upon three individuals in a garage unit that did not belong to them. To their surprise, a loaded firearm, identified as a Smith and Wesson 9mm with 13 rounds of 9mm Luger ammunition, was found in close proximity to the suspects.
While two of the men cooperated with the authorities and were arrested without any resistance, the third suspect attempted to evade capture and led officers on a brief foot chase before being apprehended.

Following the arrests, police obtained search warrants for various addresses in the vicinity of Chalkfarm Drive and Jane Street. The searches resulted in the confiscation of nearly 300 grams of fentanyl, 266 grams of cocaine, and 117 grams of methamphetamine, along with an undisclosed sum of cash.
The three individuals taken into custody have been identified as Romaro Rolando Thompson, 23, Romario Orlando Thompson, 23, and Kody Mariam, 21. Each of them is facing more than 12 charges, including multiple counts of possessing a Schedule I substance for the purpose of trafficking.
All three suspects made an appearance in a Toronto courtroom for a bail hearing on Saturday. Police are urging anyone with information related to the case to come forward and assist in the ongoing investigation.
