A Toronto woman says she is “livid” after an officer with the Toronto Police Service (TPS) allegedly told her to “call the mayor” while an intruder attempted to break into her home Monday night.
“Last night, we had an incident where someone tried to break into our home,” Barghian said in the video. She said someone could be seen waiting outside her home for an hour and a half, "waiting for someone to open the gates."
She said, after initially calling the police, officers informed her they were on their way. But, after 40 minutes of waiting, she said the police hadn’t arrived.During the second call, Barghian said an officer allegedly cited staffing shortages as the reason for the delay. She also said that she was informed during a third phone call, placed hours after the initial incident, that because no one in her home had been injured, the report had not been listed as “a priority.”
Twenty-four hours after the incident, Barghian said police had still not attended her home. In response, she says she visited a police station in person, where she says she was again told that staffing shortages were the reason police did not attend her home.
