Peel Regional Police investigators say they have made arrests in connection to the more than $20-million gold heist at Toronto International Airport.
The arrests come a year after the alleged theft, which occurred the evening of April 17, 2023. At the time, police said a cargo container holding gold and other goods were stolen from the airport.
No suspects have ever been identified.
Police say they will announce the results of Project 24K at 8:30 a.m. on Wednesday.
Toronto’s Pearson Airport is often used to transport gold mined in Canada so it can be shipped to customers globally.
Last year, Brinks International sued Air Canada, alleging a suspect accessed the cargo facilities using a fraudulent document.
The company alleged Air Canada employees failed to properly examine and authenticate the document shared by an “unidentified individual” during the planned heist.
