In April 2022, police said they “observed” the man driving when he was forbidden from doing so. After further investigation, on Friday, police arrested Ryan Kong, a 46-year-old from Mississauga.

He faces a lengthy list of charges, including four counts of operating while prohibited and two counts of driving under suspension.

Police said he was also wanted for outstanding charges that include two counts of flight from a peace officer and two counts of operating while impaired.
