One of the fugitives wanted for the high-profile $20-million Toronto airport gold heist was arrested Monday at the same airport from where the gold was stolen in 2023, after flying from Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. Mike Mavity, major case manager for the gold heist case, told National Post. The vehicle used to transport the stolen gold from Toronto’s Pearson airport. These six gold bangles are believed to have been made with the stolen gold. Police say some of the proceeds from the stolen gold were used to buy black-market guns in the United States to smuggle into Canada.
