Three offenders arrested after cutting off GPS ankle monitors
The Windsor Police Service has arrested three offenders who each cut off their court-ordered electronic ankle monitors while on bail.
In the first case, Gary Andrew Bravo, 56, was granted bail on November 17, 2025, while facing a range of criminal charges, including break-and-enter, administering a noxious substance, theft while armed, mischief under $5,000, and possession of a Schedule I substance for the purpose of trafficking (fentanyl). On December 26, Bravo removed his court-ordered ankle monitor and went into hiding. Through investigation, members of the Bail Compliance Unit located Bravo in Sarnia. He was arrested by the Sarnia Police Service on January 1, 2026, and transferred to the custody of the Windsor Police Service.
Bravo has since been charged with failure to comply (x2) with a release order and mischief under $5,000.
In a separate incident, Ryan Lawrence Langlois, 33, was released on bail on December 11, 2025, while facing charges including theft of a motor vehicle, possession of property obtained by crime, and driving while prohibited. After cutting off his ankle monitor on December 29, Bail Compliance Unit officers’ investigation led to Langlois being arrested by members of the Windsor Police Problem-Oriented Policing Unit at a residence in the 300 block of Elliott Street East on January 4, 2026.
Langlois has been charged with failure to comply with a release order (x2).
In the third matter, Malaw Lol, 21, was released on bail on December 15, 2025, while facing several charges, including multiple counts of theft of a motor vehicle, possession of property obtained by crime under $5,000, mischief under $5,000 and prior breaches of release conditions. After removing his ankle monitor, officers from the Windsor Police Bail Compliance and Repeat Offender Parole Enforcement Squad (ROPE) located and arrested Lol in the 300 block of Glengarry Avenue on December 29, 2025.
Lol faces two counts of failure to comply with a release order.
The bail compliance officers are part of the Offender Management Unit, a partnership between the Windsor and LaSalle Police Services launched in March 2024. This unit supervises high-risk individuals placed under house arrest, curfew, or electronic monitoring and ensures that those who violate their judicial release orders are held accountable. The Offender Management Unit is funded by a grant from the Government of Ontario as part of the province’s strategy to strengthen Ontario’s bail system.
