Privacy commissioner probing potential privacy breaches by Peel, Toronto police

TORONTO — Ontario’s privacy commissioner is looking into two potential privacy breaches involving police, including one that concerns a surveillance image of Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Roberto Osuna.

Information and Privacy Commissioner Brian Beamish says in a statement that the incidents under investigation involve the Peel regional and Toronto police forces.

A spokeswoman for the commissioner later provided more details in an email to The Canadian Press.

Andrea Corlett says the incident involving Toronto police concerns the “alleged unauthorized disclosure of a CCTV image of Roberto Osuna.”

The Blue Jays relief pitcher was placed on administrative leave by Major League Baseball Tuesday after being charged with assault.
