A big hit at Festa Italiana! 🚗🇮🇹

Our car made quite the impression at the Dante Club's Festa Italiana car show this past Sunday, July 19th! Visitors couldn't stop snapping photos and the real fun was watching folks hop into the back seat for a playful "arrest" photo 📷

Thanks to everyone who stopped by to check it out what a great turnout for a great event!

C'est avec une profonde tristesse que je confirme que l'agent provincial Tarun Bali, de la Police provinciale de l’Ontario (Police provinciale - OPP), a été tué dans l'exercice de ses fonctions cet après-midi à Hearst. Son courage et son dévouement au service des autres resteront à jamais gravés dans nos mémoires. Alors que nous pleurons cette perte incommensurable, j'adresse nos sincères condoléances à ses proches, à ses collègues et à l'ensemble de la communauté policière.
