PEEL Regional Police’s investigators from the 22 Division Criminal Investigation Bureau have arrested three males in relation to an incident of assault involving weapons that occurred in Brampton last Sunday.
On December 10, at approximately 10:30 p.m., Peel Regional Police attended a plaza in the area of Steeles Avenue West and McLaughlin Road in the City of Brampton with regards to an assault that occurred in the parking lot.
A 19-year-old male victim suffered minor injuries and was treated at a local hospital.
On Friday, December 15, police arrested Gurpreet Singh, 20, Karanbir Singh, 22, and Harbir Singh, 22, all of Brampton and charged them with one count of ‘assault cause bodily harm.’
All three accused parties are scheduled to appear in the Ontario Court of Justice, Brampton, on January 17 at the Ontario Court of Justice in Brampton.
The VOICE in a story titled “Violence between two groups of young South Asians in Brampton under investigation” on its website voiceonline.com on Wednesday morning was the first to report after speaking with police spokesperson Constable Lori Murphy that police had launched an investigation into the brawl and that there was a 19-year-old victim.
There were reports that the plaza where the fight took place – across from Sheridan College’s Davis Campus – has been a hot spot for crime in Brampton.
