Four men have been arrested and charged after they allegedly broke into a building and assaulted two people in downtown Toronto on Sunday. According to Toronto police, on Oct. 18, shortly before 6 p.m., officers responded to a call for a break and enter in the area of Bremner Boulevard and Lower Simcoe Street. Police say the suspects allegedly forced entry into a restricted area of a building and gained access to the rooftop to take photographs for social media. The group then allegedly assaulted a security guard and building manager while fleeing. Officers managed to locate and arrest the suspects a short distance away. Amirsalar Lotifiof, 20, of Newmarket; Alejandro Gonzalez, 20, of Toronto; Liam Shannon, 18, of Welland; and Zane Archambault, 20, of St. Catharines, are all facing numerous charges, including break and enter, two counts of assault, assault with intent to resist arrest, and possession of break and enter instruments. Archambault is facing an additional charge of breach of probation, police said in a news release. Police say they believe the suspects are responsible for other break-ins across the city. Anyone with information is being asked to contact investigators.
