Toronto police are asking for the public's assistance in identifying a man who allegedly left a pack of syringes outside of a Toronto grade school on Tuesday morning.
Police say the suspect left needles at a school in the Eglinton Avenue and Mount Pleasant Road area at around 10 am yesterday.
Police say the package contained syringes and other paraphernalia, and was left by the suspect before fleeing the scene on a bicycle.
“Some were new [syringes] in packages and sealed, some were not, some had caps on them," Det. Sgt. Scott Bradbury told CP24. "They saw this person leave the package, they picked it up and they called police immediately.”

He was last seen riding a dark-coloured bicycle.
