Gunfire Mystery in Roseneath — OPP Blame Social Media, Not Their Silence #FilmThePolice #FTP #ItsTime

The Northumberland Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is aware of misinformation currently circulating on social media and is providing the following clarification.

On October 21, 2025, at approximately 11:45 p.m., Northumberland OPP arrested one individual on County Road 45 in Roseneath in connection with a trespassing complaint. This incident was the subject of a previously issued media release titled “Person Arrested for Trespass and Mischief.”

On October 22, 2025, at approximately 3:15 a.m., officers responded to a report of what was believed to be possible gunshots in the area of Macklin Road and County Road 45. Officers patrolled the area, but no further sounds were heard, and no evidence of gunfire was located. Anyone with information is asked to contact the OPP at 1-888-310-1122 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. Please reference occurrence number E251436097.

Northumberland OPP have been made aware of social media reports that officers were involved in a firearms incident and that one person was shot and taken into custody. This information is false. It appears to stem from a misunderstanding or confusion of the two separate incidents described above.

The OPP reminds the public to rely on verified sources for accurate information and to be cautious of unverified reports circulating online.

Brampton Caledon OPP Police Press Releases

Arrests At RIDE

(CALEDON, ON) – Officers from the Caledon Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) conducted eight alcohol-related investigations in just 26 hours.

Between October 18, 2025, at approximately 11:30 p.m., and October 20, 2025, at approximately 1:30 a.m., Caledon OPP conducted numerous traffic stops upon vehicles that travelled through Reduce Impaired Driving Everywhere (RIDE) programs in various locations around Caledon. On three occasions, officers formed grounds that the driver’s ability to operate a motor vehicle was impaired by alcohol and were later criminally charged as a result of those investigations.

Mandeep JUDGE, 51, of Brampton, was charged with:

  • Operation while impaired – alcohol
  • Operation while impaired – blood alcohol concentration (80 plus)

Michael D’ANGELO, 43, of Caledon, was charged with:

  • Failure or refusal to comply with demand

Megh PATEL, 24, of Brampton, was charged with:

  • Failure or refusal to comply with demand

During those RIDE programs, an additional four motorists were found to have a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) within the “warn range”, resulting in an immediate three-day driver’s licence suspension.

In addition, Caledon OPP officers responded to a report of a single vehicle collision on King Street, near Emil Kolb Parkway, in the Town of Caledon. During that investigation, officers formed grounds that the driver’s ability to operate a motor vehicle was impaired by alcohol.

As a result, Anila RIZVI, 45, of Barrie, was charged with:

  • Operation while impaired – blood alcohol concentration (80 plus)

All four accused parties are scheduled to appear at the Ontario Court of Justice in Orangeville at a later date to answer to their charge(s). The vehicles were also impounded for a period of seven days, and their driver’s licences were suspended for a period of 90 days.

In Ontario, alcohol-impaired driving is one of the leading causes of death on the roads. You can face criminal charges if your blood alcohol concentration is 0.08 or more. You can also face charges if you are in the “warn range”, meaning your blood alcohol concentration between 0.05 and 0.079. It is also important to note that Ontario has a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to driver’s consuming alcohol that are; age 21 years or younger, a driver of any age who holds a G1, G2, M1, or M2 licence, while driving a vehicle that requires an A-F driver’s licence or Commercial Vehicle Operator’s Registration (CVOR), or while operating a road-building machine.

If you plan on drinking or consuming drugs, plan to not drive. Instead, arrange for a designated driver, take a taxi or public transit, or come up with another plan that takes impaired driving out of the picture. If you suspect that someone is driving while impaired by alcohol or drugs, it is important to call 9-1-1 to report it.
