MISSISSAUGA, ONTARIO - Peel Police have made an arrest and are searching for two remaining suspects in connection with an attempted kidnapping in Mississauga.
On June 24, 2025, at about 10:20 p.m., two young women were walking near Britannia Road West and Queen Street South when three masked suspects approached and tried to lure them to a light-coloured Audi SUV. The suspects chased and attempted to grab the victims, with reports that one may have had a gun and another a knife. A passerby intervened, and the suspects fled westbound in the Audi. The victims were not physically injured.
On Aug. 18, following a thorough investigation, 26-year-old Waleed Khan of Etobicoke was arrested and charged with 33 offences related to kidnapping, fi****ms, auto theft, and more. A search of his residence also led to the seizure of two loaded prohibited fi****ms: an AR-style rifle capable of automatic fire and a pistol, both equipped with prohibited high-capacity magazines, along with over 110 rounds of ammunition.
At the time of arrest, Khan was on probation for prior violent offences and prohibited from possessing fi****ms. He has since been released with an ankle monitor.
The two remaining suspects are described as Middle Eastern males, late teens to mid-twenties, medium build. If seen, the public are advised to not approach and call 911 immediately. The suspect vehicle, a light-coloured Audi SUV, also remains outstanding.
Anyone with information about this investigation, including the whereabouts of the remaining suspects and suspect vehicle, is asked to contact the 11 Division Criminal Investigation Bureau at (905) 453–2121, ext. 1133. Anonymous information may also be submitted by calling Peel Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) visiting peelcrimestoppers.ca.
