Public Assistance Sought in Identifying Individuals
Region of Peel – Investigators from the 21 Division Criminal Investigation Bureau (CIB) are seeking the public’s help in identifying individuals following multiple suspicious incidents in Brampton.
In early June 2025, police received two separate reports involving an elderly man who was seen speaking to children and taking photographs at a park near 950 North Park Drive. On both occasions, the man allegedly asked the children where they lived and whether they wanted to go with him. In one instance, the man was accompanied by an elderly woman and an adolescent girl while walking in the area of Meridian Road. The interactions made the children uncomfortable, and they reported the incidents to trusted adults.
The man is described as South Asian, between 60 and 70 years old, with a thin build, a white medium-length beard, and wearing traditional Indian clothing (kurta pajama), a black vest, and a turquoise or green turban.
While no criminal offences have been alleged, investigators would like to speak with the individuals involved to better understand the nature and intent of the interactions.
Anyone with information about these individuals is asked to call the 21 Division CIB at 905-453-2121, ext. 2133. Information may also be left anonymously by calling Peel Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or visiting www.peelcrimestoppers.ca.
