Officers from the Airport Division were contacted Sunday at 2:30 a.m. by a Quarantine Officer from the Public Health Agency of Canada saying they had received a fake COVID-19 test document after the man arrived from an international destination.

The 33-year-old man was released from police custody and remained with representatives from the Public Health Agency of Canada for further processing.

The man has been charged with Uttering a Forged Document. He is scheduled to appear on a future date at the Ontario Court of Justice in Brampton.
