This is beyond devastating for the families, the fellow officers, & believe me, our community here. Their role in our community is literally more important than ever to keep us safe - & a loss like this is felt in every heart where I live.
Today, the Durham Regional Police Service is mourning a profound loss following a tragic motor vehicle collision near the Ontario Police College involving two Constables in Training (CIT) who were travelling to training.
It is with deep sadness that I share that one CIT has lost their life, while the other remains in life-threatening condition.
During this difficult time, our focus is on supporting the families of our CIT's, as well as their classmates, instructors, friends, and members of our Service who are grieving this tragic loss. We will continue to ensure they receive the care and support they need.
We ask that the public respect the privacy of the families and all those affected as they navigate this unimaginable tragedy, and as notifications continue.
The circumstances surrounding the collision remain under investigation by the Ontario Provincial Police, and we will not be providing any further details at this time.

Once again we see a repeat violent offender who fails to comply with a release order rearrested. This cannot continue. These conditions are set in place as a safeguard for the community. It is time conditions are not just mere words on a paper but orders that need to be followed and respected. The safety of the community should come first and foremost.
Great job by our @AssociationDrp Members and @DRPS for getting this wanted party off the streets.
