Charges Dropped in Mitch Marner's Armed Carjacking
In 2022, Toronto Maple Leafs star Mitch Marner was carjacked and we now have a surprising update on the alleged criminals that carjacked Marner.
Back in 2022, Mitch Marner was the victim of an armed robbery outside of a movie theatre. A year later, arrests were made in relation to the crime. However, it seems like the criminals who robbed Marner will get away scot-free.
Toronto Maple Leafs forward Mitch Marner was robbed in an armed carjacking outside a movie theatre in May 2022.
Police announced a pair of arrests nearly a year later, citing months of «non-stop legwork» investigating the robbery.
Now, court documents show a Crown attorney has withdrawn all charges against both men, telling a court there wasn't "a reasonable prospect of conviction."
With the Leafs losing in round one versus the Boston Bruins, Marner faced a lot of scrutiny for his play. He is now rumored to be on his way out of Toronto via trade and this news is just even worse for the Maple Leafs star.
However, it may not be too late as Toronto Police are looking into a third potential suspect.
Asked Friday about the status of the case, Toronto police spokesperson Stephanie Sayer said, «the investigation on the third suspect is ongoing.»
More details to come.
