Arrest and charges dealt
The suspect, Domenic Buchanan, 22, of Toronto, was arrested on Friday and charged with mischief relating to religious property and mischief interfering with property and will appear in court on August 19.
Toronto police added that wilful promotion of hatred and advocating genocide are hate propaganda (hate speech) offences that require the Attorney General's consent to lay charges, but that these charges are often laid at a later time.
