Peel police issued a public safety alert Monday evening, after they said some participants were wielding weapons at a demonstration near a Hindu temple in Brampton that saw violent clashes between protesters a day earlier.

Earlier, a Canadian police officer was also suspended after videos on social media showed him participating in the pro-Khalistan protest outside the temple.

A Hindu temple near Toronto where violence erupted over the weekend was the site of another demonstration Monday night that police broke up.
