Ontario’s solicitor general has condemned an incident at a pro-Israel student event near the Toronto Metropolitan University campus where a group of students disrupted a private event, allegedly forcing Jewish students to barricade themselves in a room.
The Toronto Police Service (TPS) said five individuals have been charged after a group of protesters entered a private event on Nov. 6 in the area of Bay Street and Elm Street. Police said the group damaged property and caused those at the private event to “fear for their safety.”
