    On August 6, 2013, Sergeant Christopher Armstrong of the York Regional Police and Constable Konstantin Soukatchev of the Toronto Police Service contributed to the apprehension of an armed man in Newmarket, Ontario. The off-duty and unarmed officers had noticed the man's odd behaviour and the outline of a long gun visible through his clothing. They pursued the suspect and, after a brief struggle, they managed to restrain him until the police arrived.
