It has been a violent weekend in our city with multiple shootings and homicides. Each one has tasked our members from every unit and every division. Their dedication and professionalism can not go unnoticed, especially in cases where they ran towards danger to keep people safe. Last night’s street festival should have been a time of celebration, but when gunfire and chaos broke out, our members were there. We thank them for their courage.

It was great to stop by and see one of the Mounted Unit's finest! PC Joel Houston is an integral part of the training cadre and a true pillar of the community. We, and the horses, are lucky to have you. Always a pleasure catching up. #TPAProud

Earlier today, the TPA and our members joined the national policing community to honour the life and legacy of Constable Mohamed Lamine Benredouane of the @SPVM and the @FPPM_. In recent weeks, we have gathered far too many times to honour those who have died in the line of duty. Each service is a solemn reminder that police officers across Canada willingly place themselves in harm's way to protect others. Their ultimate sacrifice will never be forgotten. #HeroesInLife

The Toronto Police Association extends its sincere condolences to the @DRPS and the @AssociationDrp following the tragic motor vehicle collision involving two Constables-in-Training. We mourn the heartbreaking loss of one member and are hoping for the full and safe recovery of the other. Our thoughts are with their colleagues and loved ones. Everyone who decides to wear the uniform is part of the Canadian policing family. We have connected with both Chief Moreira and President Tummonds to offer our full support during this difficult time.
Durham Regional Police@DRPS

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. - Chief Peter Moreira

Once again, President @TPACampbell spoke on @am640 with @gregbradyx about the deeply concerning and unacceptable violence directed at our members. Everyone who wears the uniform understands the risks that come with the job. That reality, however, does not excuse the targeted aggression our members continue to face, and those responsible must be held fully accountable. We proudly stand behind our nearly 9,000 members who put themselves in harm's way every day to keep our communities safe. Your sacrifice does not go unnoticed.

Today’s funeral service was a tremendous showing of support from the Canadian policing community as we came together to honour a remarkable man. We thank everyone who attended, watched online, and reached out to support our members and the Pinizzotto family during this tragic time. Constable Marc Pinizzotto will forever be remembered as a hero in life, not death. His legacy of service, courage, and commitment will live on, and we will never forget him.

We express our gratitude to those who continue to work this case and the murder of Constable Marc Pinizzotto. Locating and arresting another high-profile target in this investigation is one more violent offender off our streets. We know our members will continue to pursue those responsible, at every level, and put an end to the terror that has impacted communities and our police family.

This multi-faceted investigative work by our members and policing partners nationwide is nothing short of extraordinary. The identification, location, and arrest of those allegedly responsible for multiple shootings, including at the United States Consulate and in the murder of Constable Marc Pinizzotto, demonstrate exceptional professionalism and resolve. In the face of profound loss, our teams continue to show unwavering strength, courage, and an enduring commitment to protecting our city. This work defines who our members are.
Toronto Police@TorontoPolice

We have made three arrests and seized two firearms in connection with multiple firearm discharge investigations across the GTA, including one at the United States Consulate on March 10.   One suspect will be charged with first-degree murder in the homicide of Constable Marc Pinizzotto. Another suspect remains outstanding in connection with the shooting at the U.S. Consulate.   For more information: tps.ca/media-centre/n…

Once again, while most people were sleeping, another police officer was injured protecting this city. Thankfully, this time, the officer was able to go home. We have 18-year-olds, barely adults, involved in the murder of Officer Marc Pinizzotto and now another serious incident. The fact that we could have lost another member due to the actions of a 12-year-old is beyond frustrating. These incidents should concern everyone. The blatant disrespect for our members, leading to injuries and even death, must come to an end. We recognize the SIU has a job to do and we will support our members throughout this process. However, it is also time to focus on the actions of those who are putting our members in positions where they feel the use of force is their only option.

A statement from President @TPACampbell: It is with heartbreaking sadness today that we confirm the line-of-duty death of @TorontoPolice Constable Marc Pinizzotto. A valued member of our elite Emergency Task Force, our brave brother was fatally shot early this morning during a high-risk takedown. The TPA has been on site all morning with Chief Demkiw and other members of the TPS, supporting Marc’s devastated family and colleagues. Details of how this tragic incident unfolded, as well as any arrangements, will be available in the coming days. In the meantime, I want to ask everyone for their support. When most people were safely at home in bed, this officer left his family to make this city safer. Our members put their lives on the line every day. It is a devastating tragedy that Marc did not return home to his family today.

Today, we gathered with our policing community and @CanadaBTB at the Ontario Police Suicide Memorial to remember those we have lost because of the line of duty. It was a moment to reflect alongside the colleagues, family and friends they left behind. Together, in support of one another, we are stronger. Policing demands immense responsibility, unwavering commitment, and daily sacrifice. Thank you to every partner who helps protect the mental health of first responders and understands the weight of wearing the badge. We will never forget them. #BecauseOfTheLine

Today, the @SIUOntario invoked its mandate in relation to an incident involving our members and a cyclist who refused to stop for police. We will fully support our members throughout this investigation. As this matter unfolds, we encourage everyone to wait for all the evidence to come out rather than accepting narratives that may be incomplete, inaccurate, or driven by outside interests. As a reminder, when an officer tells you to stop, you should stop.

Last week, I attended a funding event for Ontario's first Post-Traumatic Stress Injury Centre alongside Brett Nicol, Chief Superintendent, representing the Senior Officers' Organization. Quality care at its finest for first responders. Thanks for supporting our members!
