U.S. GANG THREATENS TO KILL TORONTO COPS

TORONTO -- A New York street gang has threatened to kill Toronto
cops.

The threats, including one phoned in to The Toronto Sun, came after
the force's drug squad executed 75 warrants and filed more than 169
charges between May and September.

Police said the threats came from the Rema Posse, a violent gang based
in New York City and Jamaica. "We've put a dent in their act. That's
what's motivated the threats," said Det. Sgt. Jim Ramer.

Police have assigned heavily armed emergency task force officers to
protect their drug squad colleagues.

"They're a serious threat, a serious posse," said Det. Garry Deller of
the Toronto police intelligence unit.
