...not his first rodeo...insert alt text here
In January 2014, he pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit an indictable offence (an armoured truck robbery) and received a suspended sentence, 18 months probation on top of time served.

He also has convictions for assaulting his girlfriend and then breaching conditions to stay away from her.

Two years ago, he was convicted of possession of a firearm and received time served — 45 days pre-sentence custody — and a $10 fine. A social media posting for Ming lists him as a “marketing co-ordinator.”
