Brave Toronto Police Traffic Unit officers are being hailed as heroes.
Police say they stopped a speeding Lamborghini on July 28 in 22 Division and arrested the vehicle’s driver who was allegedly sought on an outstanding warrant.
The driver faced new charges after an investigation by officers led to cash, drugs and a gun, police say.
“An adult male was arrested for outstanding warrant and faces new charges,” police said in a release.
Little else is known but the suspect who is before the courts on some serious charges.
The officers were thanked by many on social media for the heroic job that they performed in making the arrest and seizures.
“These officers are the best,” georgeandressa wrote. “Thanks for putting yourselves at risk in order to make Toronto a safer community.”
Another writer maintained the Lamborghini “should be the subject to civil forfeiture as the proceeds of crime.”
“Can the police keep the car,” another man wondered.
The base price of the fabled Lamborghini Urus is $211,000 and the luxury vehicles can reach millions of dollars.
