The Thunder Bay Police Service in Ontario will close a dedicated phone line for a harassment investigation on March 31, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. Police are making a final request for anyone with information or additional victims to come forward before the line is disconnected.
The investigation originally began on January 28, 2026, after residents reported a suspicious silver older-model Dodge Ram pickup truck. Witnesses told police a man in the truck was seen approaching women in the downtown cores.
Officers with the Break and Enter and Armed Robbery unit arrested a suspect on January 30, 2026, in connection with the reports. The suspect is described as an Indigenous man between 40 and 50 years old with a heavy build and a shaved head.
Anyone who witnessed the vehicle or experienced a similar incident should call the tip line at 807-701-5417. Callers are required to provide their name and phone number so that investigators can follow up on the information provided.
After the March 31 deadline, anyone who wants to provide information anonymously can still reach Crime Stoppers by calling 1-800-222-8477.
