A Canadian man is facing fraud charges after allegedly shipping “prohibited COVID-19 testing kits” to the United States, Toronto police said.

Investigators said in a March 27 release that they had taken a 43-year-old suspect into custody in an “ongoing fraud investigation” that involved illicit home testing kits that claimed to be able to detect COVID-19 infection.
