Maple Leafs star winger Mitch Marner says he is “safe and doing well” after he was the victim of a carjacking in Toronto on Monday evening.
Marner posted a message on his verified Twitter account thanking fans, teammates and the Maple Leafs organization for their messages of support after the crime occurred.
A police source, speaking on condition of anonymity, told The Canadian Press that Marner and his friend were robbed of their Land Rover at gunpoint outside a movie theatre by three suspects, two of which were armed with handguns.
The Maple Leafs said in a written statement Tuesday that Marner was not hurt in the carjacking.
