Fact Check: "York Regional Police arrested four suspects involved in the attempted theft of a Lamborghini, including three adults aged 20 and 22, and a 16-year-old boy, on October 5, 2023."
What We Know
The claim states that four suspects were arrested by York Regional Police in connection with an attempted Lamborghini theft on October 5, 2023. However, multiple sources indicate that the incident in question occurred on June 12, 2025, not October 5, 2023. According to the York Regional Police, the suspects arrested included three adults aged 20 and 22, along with a 16-year-old boy, all of whom were involved in the attempted theft of a Lamborghini in Vaughan, Ontario (source-4, source-5).
The suspects were charged with various offenses, including attempted theft and possession of stolen property (source-6). The incident involved a homeowner who fired a gun to deter the thieves, which further complicates the narrative surrounding the theft (source-4).
Analysis
The claim's primary inaccuracy lies in the date of the incident. The arrest of the suspects did not occur on October 5, 2023, but rather on June 12, 2025, as confirmed by multiple credible sources, including the York Regional Police's official statements (source-5). The details regarding the ages of the suspects and their involvement in the attempted theft are accurate, but the claim's assertion about the date is fundamentally flawed.
The sources used in this analysis are reliable, with the York Regional Police being a primary source of information regarding the incident. Other news outlets, such as The Epoch Times and local news reports, corroborate the police's account of the events (source-4, source-6).
Conclusion
The claim that "York Regional Police arrested four suspects involved in the attempted theft of a Lamborghini, including three adults aged 20 and 22, and a 16-year-old boy, on October 5, 2023" is False. The incident took place on June 12, 2025, and while the details regarding the suspects' ages and charges are accurate, the date of the event is incorrect.
