Traffic Stop Leads to Firearms Seized

Region of Peel – The 22 Division Community Intervention and Response Team (CIRT) have arrested three individuals in connection with multiple driving and firearms-related offences.

On Tuesday, Dec. 9, at approximately 7 p.m., CIRT officers investigated a vehicle on Worthington Avenue in the City of Brampton, but the driver fled at a high rate of speed. Shortly after, the vehicle lost control and became disabled. 

As a result, the following two men and a youth were arrested and charged:

  • 18-year-old Myles Haywood-Williams, Brampton
  • 20-year-old Elijah Turney, Dundalk
  • 16-year-old Young Person, Brampton

During the subsequent investigation, officers located two loaded Glock handguns, a high-capacity magazine containing 26 rounds of ammunition and a drum magazine.

The full list of charges follows this release.

All three accused were held for a bail hearing at the Ontario Court of Justice in Brampton.

A general provision of the Youth Criminal Justice Act (Y.C.J.A.) prohibits the release of the name of a young person, and, therefore, the identity of the Young Persons charged in this investigation is protected.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact 22 Criminal Investigation Bureau at 905-453-2121, ext. 2233. Anonymous information may also be submitted by calling Peel Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or visiting peelcrimestoppers.ca
