Toronto Police has confirmed to have arrested a U.S. fugitive in Toronto on Thursday afternoon, who fled from Halton police in Oakville Tuesday. The Beaver has been officially informed by the Toronto police Fugitive Squad that 32-year-old convicted criminal, Anthony Maiorano, was arrested without any incident at around 1 p.m. near The Queensway and Park Lawn Road in the west Toronto suburb of Etobicoke.

Police spotted the suspect in Oakville when he fled from his white SUV Mercedes after being pulled over on Tuesday afternoon by Halton police at a routine traffic stop near Sixth Line and Upper Middle Road in Oakville. Thereafter an all-inclusive search was conducted by Halton police and members of Toronto Fugitive Squad until he was arrested from a street in Toronto. Det.-Sgt. Wayne Banks alleged that Maiorano’s arrest was made “with the public¹s assistance, but also the result of some excellent police work, we were able to locate Mr. Maiorano up on The Queensway and he was arrested without incident.”

Maiorano was serving his 20-year prison sentence for robbery and aggravated assault in a Savannah, Ga. prison, before fleeing in April. The manhunt resulted in two area schools, the independent Rotherglen and public school Munn¹s, to be put in hold and secure. Banks alleged that “if he was sort of hidden and crossed the border, unless he gives us an idea of when he came over, we may never know (how long he¹s been here).”
