Police watchdog ASIRT has now said there are reasonable grounds to believe an offence was committed. But as Erik Bay reports, the Alberta Crown Prosecutor Service said charges will not be laid.
In a written report provided to ASIRT, Doduk said he fired after Nguyen pulled out what he thought was a gun and pointed it.“He was a father. He was a son,” Solano said. “He was somebody to somebody. He was an uncle. And what happened to him was not right. It was not fair.”ASIRT said there are reasonable grounds to believe an offence was committed.
“In hindsight, the perception of the constable was mistaken, and the result was tragic, but the action taken could not be proven to be criminal. Given this conclusion, no charges were recommended.”Story continues below advertisement“It’s baffling how anyone could come to this conclusion.”
