CP24 has obtained video of police raiding a Scarborough home of a father and son who were allegedly planning a “serious violent attack in Toronto.”
In the video, multiple members of an emergency response team can be seen hopping out of a white van and descending on the property, which CTV News Toronto is not providing the location of, on the night of July 28.
At one point, a flash of light can be seen on the video, which may have been a flash-bang used by police upon entry. One neighbour said she heard a “loud bang” on the night of the raid.
“I am scared because I am always outside,” the neighbour told CP24 on Wednesday after the RCMP announced multiple terror-related charges against Ahmed Fouad Mostafa Eldidi, 62, and Mostafa Eldidi, 26.
“And you see, this is a very quiet street, and I have to be careful,” she said.
Police have said that both suspects were taken into custody at a hotel in Richmond Hill.
Neighbours told CP24 that a woman in her 40s, who they believed to be the mother of the younger suspect, also lived in the home, as well as another man in his 20s, believed to be her other son.
