Toronto Police Service Supt. Scott Baptiste says the force is expecting anywhere from 800 to 1,000 Hells Angels and other motorcycle enthusiasts to drive through various streets in memory of an unnamed member who recently died. The Toronto Star has reported the man being commemorated is former Hells Angels member Donny Peterson.
"This procession will inevitably cause traffic disruption in our city," Baptiste told reporters Wednesday."We have no information to indicate that they intend to do anything other than participate in the memorial ride, followed by a gathering."
