The accused was charged with firearms, drug, and driving offences following police surveillance, a vehicle stop, and an apartment search.
The court found that the accused did not know unmarked police vehicles were pursuing him when he fled an intersection, believing instead he was escaping gang violence.
Furthermore, the Crown failed to prove the accused had constructive possession of a firearm and marijuana found in a friend's apartment.
The accused was acquitted of all charges, including dangerous driving and mischief to property, as the Crown failed to prove the essential elements beyond a reasonable doubt.
