Four suspects then got out of the vehicle and fled on foot, though police were able to apprehend two of the suspects following a brief foot pursuit. A third suspect was arrested a short time later following the execution of a search warrant at an apartment complex in Mississauga. Police say that the fourth suspect remains outstanding. The suspects are facing a combined 14 charges.
