Two police officers have been killed in the line of duty in Ontario this week.
Today, we mourn Toronto Police Service Constable Marc Pinizzotto - a husband and father who spent 18 years serving others.
On behalf of the London Police Service, we stand with his family, Chief Myron Demkiw, and all members of the Toronto Police Service during this unimaginable loss.
We honour his courage, his service, and his sacrifice. He will never be forgotten.
We are proud of our Corporate Communications Network team for hosting another great Media Relations Officer course this week. These terrific participants from Ontario #police services are learning together and building a great support network for their work. #CCN#media
