Toronto police have identified a man wanted for public mischief after a suspicious package was left at Broadview station.
Police said the package was found in the station’s bus bay around 6:30 a.m. Monday. The station was shut down for more than four hours.
Although nothing harmful was found in the package, police believe it was left there intentionally.
“It was left discarded, it was in a visible area, so more of a likelihood that whoever put that package there intended for someone to react to it,” Insp. Anthony Paoletta said.
Kamal Badri, 53, of Toronto has been identified as a suspect and is now wanted by police.
Service on Line 2 was initially shut down between Pape and Castle Frank stations, but then subway service resumed with trains only bypassing Broadview.
There was also no service on the 504 King and the 505 Dundas routes between Parliament Street and Broadview Station.
