The operator of the drone was charged for operating the drone during an advertised event under Canadian Aviation Regulations, police said.
Toronto police added to their list of intercepted drones on Thursday night, bringing the total number up to eight, after catching yet another drone in the Fort York area near the city’s Fan Fest zone.
Police were called to the Fort York Boulevard and Fleet Street area at 8:05 p.m., just as the Canada's routing of Qatar wrapped, for reports of an unauthorized drone detected and intercepted by TPS officers, according to a post on X.
