"If you're not a Ford supporter, you're not allowed to be in this building," the Ford supporter allegedly said, according to a press release from Cynthia Amsden on behalf of Andray. "If you don't leave, I will remove you."

The Ford supporter, who is not named in the release, is allegedly the superintendent of the apartment building at 75Irwin Road.

It is unclear from the statement what the physical threat involved.

Joan, who was accompanied by Andray's mother and another campaign team member at the time, called the police but did not wait after being placed on a priority hold.

When the Ford supporter was made aware of the police call, he left the scene in his car, according to the statement released on behalf of Andray.

A CBC reporter asked Doug Ford about the allegations. He said the media shouldn't focus on the incident.

His spokesmanAminMassouditold CBC News the campaign would not release a statement addressing the allegations.

The reporter also knocked on the superintendent's door, but there was no answer.

Candidate 'furious' over threats

Andray tweeted about the incident, saying he was "furious" about what happened.
