A Toronto family is pressing police for answers after a bungled arrest left a 17-year-old "traumatized" in what it believes was a case of racial profiling. Bosveld says his godson, who is not being named by CBC News as he is a minor, was dragged from the car and handcuffed. Kwami Garwood, 21, is wanted on charges of first-degree murder by Toronto police and on charges of kidnapping by Peel police. Peel police have a chance, he added, to show they're sincerely committed to doing right by Black people. The 17-year-old's family has launched a crowdfunding campaign to be able to hire a lawyer to help them seek answers.
