Toronto police officers raided several North York residential buildings in a human trafficking investigation early Thursday morning.

 

Several reports said people were seen being taken into custody during the raid, but police haven’t provided a statement about how many people or what chargers are being laid.

The sex crimes unit handling the investigation was supposed to update media on the arrests at 10 a.m. news conference, but later tweeted it was postponed indefinitely due to further investigation needed.

 

 

They later tweeted that the events of this morning were not related to the recent RCMP Canada-wide prostitution ring investigation.
