Toronto police to reveal new information in kidnapping case of Ontario boy

It is believed that Jolayemi was abducted as collateral for his stepbrother's $4 million drug debt.

Jolayemi was headed to school on the morning of March 4 when he was forced against his will into a dark-colored Jeep on Driftwood Avenue in North York.

According to witnesses, Jolayemi screamed for help as two men in bandanas and dark clothing shoved him into the Jeep and sped off.

His parents reported him missing around 5:30pm that night and were only notified by his school that he did not show up to class that day just after 6 p.m.

An Amber Alert was then issued by midnight, nearly 16 hours after the boy was abducted.

At the time, the police did not release any details about possible suspects.

Police Chief Mark Saunders told reporters that his officers would be "aggressively investigating" the case and asked for total cooperation from the teen's brother, whose whereabouts were unknown at the time.

"He would have a strong idea of who was involved and what the involvement was and then we would have a starting point to move this investigation further," the police chief said in March.

"If he plays that role of being a stronger witness, then great, but right now, my appeal is still as it stands that we are looking for everyone else to cooperate."

Saunders is expected to provide an update on the case at Toronto police headquarters at 10:30 a.m. and CP24 will also be live-streaming the news conference.
