Two men are facing charges in connection with a carjacking in Mississauga last year, in which they allegedly forcefully grabbed the victim’s car keys right out of his pocket.
Police say charges were laid this week in connection with the Oct. 19, 2023 carjacking in which the victim was confronted by two men as he stepped out of his parked vehicle at a Malton plaza.
Police said, the man had just parked his car in a plaza parking lot at Derry Road East and Goreway Drive area when a pair of culprits targeted him and his vehicle.
Two men approached him and demanded the car keys. After allegedly snatching them out of the victim’s pocket, forcefully, both suspects got into the vehicle and drove away.
A few days later, on October 22, police in Belleville located the vehicle and arrested its two occupants, charging them with possession of property obtained by crime.
24-year-old Nicholas Goulet and 25-year-old Brian Goodfellow, both of Belleville, are charged with robbery.
Police ask anyone with information to call investigators at 905-453-2121, ext. 3410, or Peel Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
