Canada Border Services Agency mobile x-ray scanner sent to GTA in response to auto thefts

The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has deployed a new, mobile x-ray scanning machine to the Greater Toronto Area as part of an effort to crack down on the soaring number of auto thefts.

Officials unveiled the $3.5-million unit during a news conference at the CBSA’s regional headquarters in Mississauga Sunday afternoon.

Authorities said in a statement the mobile x-ray unit was bought as part of a national plan to combat auto theft which partly relies on “non-intrusive inspection technology.”
