South Simcoe police ‘vigilant' after Colorado attack
The South Simcoe Police Service (SSPS) is remaining 'vigilant' after Sunday's attack in Boulder, Colo. that is being investigated by the FBI as an act of terror. 'Our thoughts are with those impacted by this senseless act of violence,' said a SSPS media officer in part of their statement to CTV News. 'SSPS members remain vigilant in monitoring our communities to ensure the safety and security of everyone. Hate has no place in our communities, and the SSPS does not tolerate or condone acts of hate against a person or property, for any reason.' Eight people were injured in Sunday's incident, where law officials say a man hurled an incendiary device into a group that was raising attention for Israeli hostages. On Monday, Toronto police stated via social media that they will be maintaining a heightened presence at schools, community centres and places of worship across the city. Police in York Region and Halton Region have made similar statements. 'Collaborating with various religious and community leaders, SSPS members work year-round to support an inclusive community that respects and values the diverse cultures and religions that represent our communities,' continued the SSPS media officer in their statement to CTV News. 'Throughout the year, SSPS have increased their visible presence at key places of worship and community centres, reinforcing our commitment to safety and inclusivity. SSPS actively engage with our partner agencies and continuously monitor for any potential threats within our communities. We are committed to ensuring that every community member feels safe, secure, and supported.' When CTV News reached out to the Barrie Police Service, a media officer responded by saying that they are 'aware' of the Boulder, Colo. incident. Tuesday marks the second day of the Jewish 'Shavuot' holiday, which ends at nightfall. With files from CTV's Phil Tsekouras and the Associated Press.
