One of three men wanted in connection with the assault of a 29-year-old man with autism at a Mississauga bus terminal has been taken into custody.
Peel Regional Police confirm Parmvir ‘Parm’ Singh Chahil was arrested in Windsor, Ont., without incident.
He had been wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for one count of aggravated assault.
A video of the attack released by police on March 13 shows the man sitting at the bottom of a stairwell putting on roller blades when three young men approached from behind and began to punch and kick him.
Police said the unidentified victim suffered a broken nose and facial cuts.
Police have also issued a Canada-wide warrant for Ronjot Singh Dhami, 25, of no fixed. His last known address is in Surrey, B.C.
A lawyer representing Dhami says his client is not guilty of the attack that drew outrage from across the country.
Jag Virk adds Dhami plans to turn himself into police on Monday, but he maintains his innocence.
