Peel Police Arrest 12 in ‘Project Night Train’ Targeting GTA Homes and Jewelry Stores
Peel Regional Police have dismantled two major criminal networks linked to a string of violent home invasions and jewelry store robberies across the Greater Toronto Area. Dubbed Project Night Train, the six-month investigation led to the arrest of 12 people, including six youths, and the laying of 136 charges.
