Toronto police say there are no grounds to charge Daniel Dale, the Toronto Star reporter who got into a confrontation with Rob Ford last week outside the mayor's west-end home.

The public will get to have its say if a parcel of land at the centre of an angry confrontation between Rob Ford and a Toronto Star reporter is sold to the Toronto mayor.

Toronto Mayor Rob Ford says he "can't even find a word to describe how low" the Toronto Star goes, one day after a tense and angry altercation with one of the newspaper's reporters outside his home.

Toronto Mayor Rob Ford called the police Wednesday, claiming that a journalist from the Toronto Star was spotted in the bushes in the back yard of his west Toronto home.
