Another successful Project Breezy with @torontopolice@theredrocketcop@gatewaybikehub@tps13div @tpsauxiliary. Over 80 bikes donated to families in the Thorncliffe Park and Flemingdon Park Communities.
Thank you to everyone who donated. 🚲
Came off duty this morning, to *go home,* learning an @OPP_ER Brother in Blue would not be going home. And 2 others to the hospital. My Sgt started our shift by saying, "Everyone goes home." The reality: that's not a guarantee in this line of work. Just so GD sad. Again. 💔💙
At ~8:30 PM today @TTChelps#SpecialConstables on duty at Yonge and Bloor station received a call for a passenger who was vital signs absent. Constables confirmed the passenger was not breathing and administered NarCan restoring vital signs.
Great work by the foot patrol team!

Today at 1:11PM #TTC#SpecialConstables (SPC's) were at Bloor Yonge Station for reports of a suicidal person. While looking for the person in crisis, that individual lit them selves on fire. SPC's quickly extinguished the fire and apprehended them under the Mental Health Act. 1/2

The last few weeks we have raised awareness about incidents our members face daily. We have attended bail hearings for those accused of attacking our members. We have continued to speak out about the need for meaningful reform to bail legislation. We will not stop #enoughisenough
Yesterday I got to assist in ensuring the safety of @TPSOperations funeral for our fallen hero, Andrew Hong #7815. It was an honour to be part of this day watching thousands of officers and first responders pay their respects. #HeroesInLife#RestinPeace
In an impromptu show of respect, officers from multiple agencies, both on & off duty, line the route in front of the Office of the Chief Coroner as the motorcade took fallen fellow officer PC Andrew Hong's body from the scene in Mississauga Monday night.

Great work by members of B platoon, who arrested a suspect responsible for an unprovoked assault on a 9 year old child at Wellesley Subway station tonight.
