Police have arrested four more people in connection with a viral video that showed a woman stealing a Porsche from a Mississauga driveway and then striking its owner as she attempted to flee the scene.
The incident happened near Winston Churchill Boulevard and Eglinton Avenue in Mississauga on the afternoon of Sept. 6.
Police have previously said that the suspect or suspects responded to an AutoTrader advertisement and arranged to view the vehicle.
But after a woman knocked on the owner’s door and asked to “take a look” she quickly reversed the Porsche onto the street, striking the owner who had positioned himself at its rear in an apparent attempt to thwart the theft.
Last week, police released a video showing the “brazen” theft and within a day of that an 18-year-old woman had turned herself into to face charges.
Now, police say that four more people are facing charges in connection with the incident, including two young persons.
“Investigators believe these individuals to be part of an organized group responsible for various serious offences and anticipate laying further charges and identifying additional suspects,” a news release issued on Friday notes.
