Toronto police say eight people have been arrested after they allegedly broke into the office of a member of Parliament and refused to leave as part of a protest Thursday morning.
Police say they were called to the protest near Bloor Street and Dorval Road around 11:30 a.m.
They allege that about 30 to 40 people forced their way into the common area of an MP’s office, and a lone staff member called 911.

Police say the eight suspects, ranging in ages from 24 to 67, are each facing multiple charges including forcible entry and unlawful assembly.
