Toronto police told BBC Brasil that Anton Pilipa is charged with attempted armed assault and appeared in court last Monday, the same day he arrived in the country from Brazil.

He was released on bail and his next hearing will be on the 13th. Police declined to provide further details about the case.

The attack is believed to have taken place on January 29, 2011. He was summoned to court but disappeared before his scheduled court appearance.
