Peel Regional Police is appealing for witnesses after a driver was held at gunpoint during a large scale truck heist in Brampton.
It happened around 7:50 p.m. on March 13 in the area of Steeles Ave. East and Goreway Dr.
Police say a delivery truck was leaving the warehouse when armed suspects forced their way into the cab of the truck and pulled a gun on the 33-year-old driver.
The driver and the truck were taken to an industrial area at Clark Blvd. and Summerlea Rd. where about $6.9 million in cell phones were transferred into another truck.
The suspects fled the area with the stolen goods and the driver contacted police. He was not injured during the incident.
