Six teens charged in GTA gunpoint carjacking

Police say they responded to the call for a carjacking on Enterprise Boulevard in the early morning hours of July 13. Two victims had entered their Mercedes CLA45 vehicle in a parking lot, when they were blocked from behind by suspects in a white Hyundai Elantra. Two male suspects allegedly got out of the car and approached the victims, one with a visible handgun and one indicating he was armed.

The suspects then demanded the victim’s vehicle, phones and wallets, before getting into the Mercedes and driving away in tandem with the white Elantra.Six people have been arrested in connection with this investigation. Officers from York Regional Police, Peel Regional Police and the Toronto Police Service have also recovered six stolen vehicles, including the white Hyundai Elantra, which was stolen during a home invasion in Peel Region earlier this month.
