Police have arrested a driver who allegedly struck five people on a walkway at Toronto Metropolitan University in April.
The incident happened on April 18, at about 2 p.m., on Nelson Mandela Walk, a pedestrian pathway on the TMU campus near Yonge and Gerrard streets.
Toronto police said the victims were sitting on a bench, when the 23-year-old suspect drove his car toward them. Police initially said there were four victims, but said on Friday that a fifth was identified in the days after the incident.
None of the victims had life-threatening injuries, police said.
Toronto police said in a news release on Friday that the man was arrested following a road rage incident on Thursday.
He was arrested on multiple charges, including attempted murder and sexual assault with a weapon.
