Ariel Kaplan, whose body was found in a hockey bag this spring, feared for his safety shortly before he was abducted and murdered last year, police say
A Toronto man whose body was found in a hockey bag this spring feared for his safety shortly before he was abducted and murdered last year, police said Monday as they sought more information on what happened to him.
Det. Sgt. Doris Carriere said police are now seeking more witnesses to piece together possible motives and details of Kaplan’s final days, after speaking to more than 100 witnesses and analyzing “hundreds of thousands of data files” in the investigation supported by Toronto police. Carriere said police believe Kaplan was abducted in the area of Yonge Street and Sheppard Avenue in Toronto. Before that, he had dinner with acquaintances in the Yorkville neighbourhood.
In the days and weeks before he disappeared, Kaplan feared for his safety, and was possibly being followed, Carriere said. Carriere also did not share the cause of Kaplan’s death because he said that detail is being used to verify accounts from witnesses. Kaplan was reported missing in Toronto on Sept. 3, 2021.
