- Ontario Provincial Police said three men stopped near Oshawa face numerous firearms charges, including careless use of a firearm, possession for a dangerous purpose, and carrying a concealed weapon.
- Co-accused Jagdeep Singh of New York and Arman Singh of Toronto were charged alongside Gosal, with police noting the investigation is ongoing and no immediate update on their bail status.
