Security footage shows a series of carjackings in Toronto that occurred between March 26 and April 3.

Three men are facing charges, and another remains at large, after a series of carjackings in Toronto caught on video.

Toronto Police said the carjackings and vehicle thefts occurred between March 26 and April 3.

The first incident happened on the morning of March 26, outside of a residence in the area of Lawrence Avenue West and Avenue Road.

Surveillance footage, provided by police, shows three masked men wearing all black exiting a silver vehicle and running toward a woman on the driveway.

After allegedly making a demand for her keys, two of the three suspects pile into the woman’s Audi before the third suspect scampers back to the original vehicle, and they all drive away.

The second incident occurred on April 3 at around 2 a.m., in the area of Avenue Road and Glengarry Avenue.

Video shows an SUV come to a stop on the opposite side of the road before a suspect dressed in all black approaches a white Audi SUV parked in the driveway.

Police said the suspect drove away, and the car was later reported stolen.

Hours later that same day, at around 9 a.m. in the area of Bayview Avenue and Hillsdale Avenue East, police said two masked men approached a woman sitting in her car before “forcibly” removing her and stealing her vehicle.

The woman did not sustain any physical injuries, police added.

Later that afternoon, at around 1:15 p.m., police said two men approached another woman sitting in her car in the area of Wicksteed Avenue and Laird Drive.

In this incident, the men allegedly assaulted the woman, stole her purse and car keys, and then fled the area in an awaiting vehicle.

On the evening of April 5, just before 10:15 p.m., officers said they saw a car speeding in the area of Don Mills Road and Lawrence Avenue East.

After conducting a traffic stop, police arrested three male suspects from Toronto, aged 18, 19 and 21. They face a combined total of 24 charges, including possession of property obtained by crime.

Police did not disclose their identities and said a fourth suspect remains outstanding. They did not provide a description of the suspect at-large.

Investigators are asking anyone with additional information to contact them or Crime Stoppers anonymously.
