30 minutes later and less than 3 kilometers away the trio broke into another home. When the homeowner confronted them, two of them brandished guns and one of them shot into a wall. 2 days later, the Provincial Car Jacking Task Force (PCJTF), arrested the three. Jonathan Khan, 19, of Brampton, is facing 28 charges. The two others, ages 16 and 15 are facing over 12 charges each but cannot be named due to the Youth Criminal Justice Act.

Closing Remarks:
We are very glad to hear that the homeowners were not physically hurt. Hopefully, they can ease their minds knowing that the three have been arrested. Protect your homes, use security cameras and ensure that you arm them, even when you are home. Extra locks help prevent doors from being kicked in more easily. Be safe everyone.
Excellent work by the Toronto Police and the Provincial Car Jacking Task Force for arresting the assailants quickly.
