SIU – 

SIU Concludes Essex County Firearms Injuries Investigation

Case Number: 13-PFI-192

Other News Releases Related to Case 13-PFI-192
Appeals Form

Mississauga (10 September, 2013) — The Director of the Special Investigations Unit (SIU), Ian Scott, has concluded that there are no reasonable grounds to charge any officer with the Ontario Provincial Police with a criminal offence in relation to the shooting injuries sustained last month by a male who was 17-years-old at the time of the incident.

The SIU assigned five investigators and two forensic investigators to probe the circumstances of this incident. As part of the investigation, eight witness officers and eight civilian witnesses were interviewed. Three subject officers were designated. Two of the subject officers did not consent to an interview or provide the SIU with a copy of their notes, as is their legal right. The third subject officer provided the SIU with a copy of his duty notes but did not consent to an interview. A combination of firearms and ballistics analysis, as well as civilian and police witness statements provided enough information to understand the material events related to this incident.

The SIU investigation found that the following events took place on Saturday, August 3, 2013:
• In the morning hours, the three subject officers and a witness officer were investigating a robbery/attempt murder on the Oneida First Nations settlement. The officers received information that a 17-year-old male suspect had armed himself with a sawed-off rifle and was walking down Elijah Road.
• As officers arrived on scene in their cruisers, the suspect turned and fired a shot in the direction of a civilian and one of the officers. The officers reversed their cruisers and followed the male from a distance as he continued to walk westbound on Elijah Road. The officers stopped about 45 meters from him and exited their cruisers. The male reloaded his rifle, turned and walked towards the officers who had taken cover behind one of the cruisers. He discharged a second shot towards the officers. The projectile entered the rear door on the driver’s side of the cruiser. All of the officers returned fire, striking the male and causing him to fall to the ground.
• The male was provided immediate medical aid at the scene and transported to London Health Sciences Centre where he was diagnosed as sustaining multiple gunshot wounds: one above his right eye, an entrance and related exit wound in his upper chest, and wounds to both arms. He is expected to survive.

Forensic examination of the scene determined that one of the four involved officer’s discharges did not strike the complainant.

Director Scott said, “In my view, the subject officers were justified in their use of lethal force in these circumstances. The male proved himself to be an imminent threat to the lives of an officer and a civilian when he discharged a round at them, and underscored that imminent threat when he discharged another round at the four involved officers. It was clear on this pattern of behaviour that the male continued to represent an imminent threat to the lives of the officers at the time they discharged their firearms at him. Accordingly, I have no grounds to believe that the subject officers committed a criminal offence when they discharged their firearms at the male.”

The SIU is an arm’s length agency that investigates reports involving police where there has been death, serious injury or allegations of sexual assault. Under the Police Services Act, the Director of the SIU must

  • consider whether an officer has committed a criminal offence  in connection with the incident under investigation
  • depending on the evidence, lay a criminal charge against the officer if appropriate or close the file without any charges being laid
  • report the results of any investigations to the Attorney General.

OPP Teen Victimization;

Ontario Provincial Police News Portal [STORMONT DUNDAS and GLENGARRY] Teen Victimization 2013-09-10

(ORILLIA, ON) – Young people who create and send sexual images through social media can often find themselves overwhelmed by the circumstances.  Teens can experience fear, despair and victimization after engaging in self-peer exploitation or ‘sexting’ and cyber bullying.

A website has been developed to help young people manage the helplessness they feel when they realize the negative consequences that can occur when they create and send sexual images through social media.

The Canadian Centre for Child Protection (CCCP) has created a web-based, bilingual resource at www.NeedHelpNow.ca .  This website is a place where teens can turn to find out how to regain control over what can quickly become a frightening and overwhelming experience. The website provides young people with practical advice and helpful information to manage the harassment they might feel over what they may have done online.

The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is supporting this important initiative to enhance safety and help reduce fear and despair among young people.  NeedHelpNow.ca provides strategies to empower youth to take action to protect themselves.

NeedHelpNow posters are being distributed by OPP detachments for schools to display, to help raise awareness.  The OPP is also distributing a business card with information in communities across the province to promote this program.

QUOTES:
“As a public safety organization, we have great concern for the safety of any teen victimized by the distribution of photographs on the internet and we will provide support in any way we can.  The OPP will use every avenue available to promote NeedHelpNow.ca as a potential resource for teens.”
OPP Commissioner Chris Lewis
“Teens need to realize the short and long term risks of sending out inappropriate or illegal photographs.  Those who distribute such photos also need to be aware of the possible criminal ramifications of doing so.  The OPP strongly supports any initiative to enhance awareness of this issue, and possibly prevent tragic outcomes in the future.”
Inspector Scott Naylor, OPP Child Sexual Exploitation Unit
Police Advisor to the Canadian Centre for Child Protection
