An attack on a well-known Brampton real estate agent and media personality in his own driveway was one of three such recent attacks, police say.
·Well-known real estate agent and media personality, Joti Singh Mann, was attacked by three masked men in front of his Brampton home on Aug 4.
Gormley spoke to reporters after Joti Singh Mann was left with life-altering injuries in what police say was a targeted attack on Aug. 4. Three masked men wielding a machete and an axe attacked Mann after he got into his car in the area of Mayfield Road and Hurontario Street at about 8:15 a.m.Police say the attack continued outside of the car until Mann's mother intervened and the suspects fled.
Gormley says Mann received a death threat a few days before the attack and that police had put a safety plan in place. Police are now looking into whether a vehicle seized from the area a few months ago is connected to the attack. Mann's father said the three men ran off and got into a car with a fourth assailant who drove them away.
"I hope the individuals responsible face the full extent of the law and the consequences that fall from that," he said.Police are asking for anyone who has video that would be helpful to the investigation to come forward. Investigators are continuing to canvas the neighbourhood for video.
