The power of the collective eye has struck again! We congratulate @TPSHomicide and the Charlottetown Police Services for the arrest of Bolo’s #1 suspect Michael Bebee in Charlottetown, PEI, on Tuesday, April 30, 2024. Bebee was wanted by @TorontoPolice on a Canada-wide warrant for murder.

We thank TPS and @1800222TIPS for partnering with us to keep our communities safe. And above all, many thanks to all Canadians for being on the lookout for Bebee!
