(Canadian Press) A fourth person has been arrested in Calgary as part of an ongoing national security investigation related to terrorism-related posts on TikTok and other social media sites.
Federal crown prosecutor Kent Brown says a 16-year-old boy was arrested Wednesday and was subject to a section of the Criminal Code that allows for a peace bond if there’s fear the person may commit a terrorism offence.
He’s the fourth Calgarian — and the third teenager — to be arrested since the RCMP investigation started.
The teen, who cannot be identified under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, is to appear in court on Jan. 5 — the same day as a 15-year-old who was arrested in October as part of the same investigation.
