The @TorontoPolice “Community Experience Program” helps recruits connect with our communities & learn from lived experiences. Our newest constables visited the Toronto Holocaust Museum reflecting on the devastating consequences of hate & discrimination. @thethmuseum @TPS32Div
Please share widely. We need the public’s help. If you have any information, no matter how small, report it and contact police immediately. If you see Esther or know anything that could assist investigators, call us right away! @TorontoPolice @tps32NCO @Shomrimtoronto

Our partnership and collaboration with the Jewish Security Network and information provided by @ShomrimToronto at the scene assisted @TorontoPolice investigators and helped lead to a very quick arrest by our officers. Public and community safety is best served when we work together. In an emergency, always call 9-1-1. For information on these charges, please see our news release: tps.ca/media-centre/news-rel…
UJA is relieved to learn that Toronto Police Service (TPS) has made an arrest following another attack with a weapon targeting members of the Jewish community last night. One person was injured.
The Jewish Security Network (JSN), in partnership with other community security partners, received critical information about the shooting and passed the information to law enforcement, who were then able to make an arrest.
These alarming antisemitic attacks, now occurring in rapid succession, must not be allowed to continue. These escalating acts of intimidation and extremism threaten not only the Jewish community, but the safety and social fabric of our broader society. Everyone in Canada should be concerned.
As for the Jewish community, we have always persevered and will continue to do so. We are not going anywhere.
Because of our community’s vigilance in reporting specific information, police were able to trace and make this arrest.
Always report security concerns to police (911) and to the Jewish Security Network’s 24/7 Security Operations Centre at 437-222-3999.
Grateful to both @TorontoPolice & @YRP Joint-Forces Investigators for apprehending the suspect who commit these acts of violence at our synagogues. See the link below for details. tps.ca/media-centre/news-rel…
Proud day for @TorontoPolice 32 Division in Lawrence Heights. This Police-Community Safety Hub reflects what’s possible when we work alongside residents and community partners to build safer neighbourhoods.

As Hanukkah begins, the world is grieving today’s antisemitic terror attack in Bondi Beach. Our thoughts are with the victims’ families and Toronto’s Jewish community. We stand against hate and terrorism. While there is no nexus to Toronto, the @TorontoPolice have deployed a whole-of-service approach to increase police presence and visibility to Toronto’s Jewish communities including at schools, places of worship, events today and throughout the holidays.

As the Jewish community observes the High Holy Days, we recognize the importance of safety and security.
Over the coming weeks, our officers will increase patrols and maintain a visible presence near synagogues and other places of worship across Toronto.
Command posts will also be established at strategic locations.
We will continue working with our partners to ensure our communities are safe and feel safe.
“A powerful moment shared with @TPSMyronDemkiw, colleagues, & faith leaders at the @TorontoPolice @TPS32Div #PrayerWalk—faith, community, and police together, building trust, hope, and safer streets. #StrongerTogether”

Nearly all major crime indicators in Toronto are down in 2025, but distraction-style thefts are on the rise. That’s why we’re increasing our efforts to arrest and charge those responsible.
Protect yourself and your belongings by staying aware of your surroundings, and always keeping your valuables close to your body.

Leadership is a practice, a commitment and a responsibility. It was an honour to welcome women from across Canada to the IACP Women’s Leadership Institute at the Toronto Police College. I am proud to support their ongoing development as future leaders in policing.
We're thrilled to announce our partnership with the Toronto Police Service as we celebrate the IACP’s Training Center at the Toronto Police College. The Women's Leadership Institute kicks off its first IACP class at the Toronto Police College this week. @TorontoPolice
A pleasure to attend the graduation of 500 police recruits @OntarioPoliceCollege. 91 are returning to @TorontoPolice College for even more specialized training and then to our communities! #Congratulations ! You will meet them very soon!

Conversations like these are important and necessary. Today was an opportunity to learn from partners and offer feedback. The Toronto Police Service will continue to be a strong partner in the fight against antisemitism and all hate crimes. Please report any suspected hate crime to police so it can be investigated.
Chief @TPSMyronDemkiw spoke at the National Forum on Combatting Antisemitism in Ottawa today on the urgent need to strengthen our collective efforts to combat antisemitism and all hate. He highlighted the need for a consistent approach and opportunities to strengthen the law, and for additional federal funding to support police training, investigations, and police response to protests in communities disproportionately impacted by geopolitical events. Thank you @Safety_Canada for hosting this conversation.

This week, IACP President Ken Walker attended the @TorontoPolice graduation ceremony where 90 cadets were sworn into policing service. Graduation coincided with the grand opening of the IACP Training Center housed within the Toronto Police College. Thank you to Chief Myron Demkiw for his leadership and the opportunities that lie ahead as a result of this global coordination of the policing profession.
