After thousands of fans poured into Jurassic Park and packed downtown bars Monday, Toronto police are probing a handful of incidents following Game 5 — but are pleased with the overall fan behaviour throughout the Raptors’ historic playoff run.

Toronto police spokesperson Allison Sparkes said Tuesday that police are investigating “several separate incidents” in the city overnight, but as of Tuesday afternoon officers have not confirmed that they are connected with the Raptors’ game or the crowds.

That includes an overnight stabbing at University Ave. and Richmond St. in the early hours Tuesday. Toronto police said a man was taken to hospital with a leg injury, and that they’d received reports that the incident might be linked to a fight involving a large crowd at Yonge and Gerrard Sts. around midnight.

Police also arrested a woman just after midnight after they said a group of people was “throwing objects and attempting to break glass” at a Queen St. business shortly after midnight. Officers had been summoned to a store on Queen and Berkeley Sts after “at least four people were seen causing damage” to a storefront.

A spokesperson also confirmed Tuesday that they are “aware” of a video on social media that depicts what appears to be an unprovoked attack on fans of the Golden State Warriors. The video was posted after the Raptors’ Monday night loss, though it’s unclear when the video was filmed.

In the video, a man wearing a black hoodie appears to shove or punch a man walking with his arm around another person near York St. at King St. W., and both are knocked to the ground. One male victim was wearing a Warriors jersey.

As of Tuesday afternoon, Toronto police had not received a complaint about the video and haven’t opened an investigation.

Sparkes, Toronto police director of corporate communications, said police have been pleased with fan behaviour so far.

Sparkes said that 60 days into the playoffs, with thousands of people packing into Jurassic Park, Toronto police have laid related charges against eight people.

Seven of those are connected to an incident where several men jumped on police car after the team’s series-clinching win against the Milwaukee Bucks on May 25 (two men have been arrested); the eighth is mischief charge laid against Tristan Warkentin, the Toronto man accused of making obscene, sexist comments on live TV after a game last week.

Sparkes said after Monday’s game, fans inside Jurassic Park were “cooperative” and followed the requested routes on their way out.

“It seems people wanted to get home and the additional transit options allowed them to leave the area, safely and fairly quickly,” she said.
