Classified police files stolen in Caledonia
CTV.ca News Staff

Ontario Provincial Police are trying to recover classified documents containing the identities of undercover officers that were stolen in a recent altercation between natives and police in Caledonia, Ont.

Operational plans about the long-standing native occupation were also taken.

The documents were stolen last Friday during a dispute where several native protestors surrounded a U.S. Border Patrol guard vehicle and forcibly removed its three passengers.

The U.S. officers were in the area observing the provincial police's handling of the near-four month land dispute.

Police said one of the protestors got into the vehicle and then drove it at an officer, who was injured as he was pulled out of its path.

The original documents were later returned, but not before photocopies were made, police believe.

The papers list the names of OPP officers and U.S. agents involved in the standoff, home phone numbers, information from confidential informants and notes of investigations into human smuggling across the Canada-U.S. border near Niagara Falls, according to The Toronto Star.

Arrest warrants for six individuals and one unidentified person were issued on the weekend.

The suspects face several serious charges -- including attempted murder, robbery, forcible confinement, and theft of a motor vehicle -- in connection with the swarming.

The charges also cover several tense skirmishes, including a dispute that also occurred Friday where two TV news cameramen were allegedly assaulted by a crowd of native protestors.

Meanwhile, Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty announced Monday night he was fed up with the ongoing violence, and said land claim talks would cease if the protestors didn't take down their barricades.
