Marner was held at gunpoint by three suspects at a movie theatre in the southwest part of the city. The suspects had two handguns and a knife and stole his black Range Rover. Toronto Police Services said there were no injuries reported after the robbery. A Toronto Sun source said, “The suspects did not know it was Marner. They were only interested in the Range Rover, which they can quickly sell out of (the) country.”

Leafs PR said TPS asked that neither Marner nor the team comments any further on the incident while there’s an ongoing investigation.

Toronto was recently eliminated from the postseason in seven-game series by the Tampa Bay Lightning.
