Sask. Police Commission hears appeal of officer fired for friendship with Hells Angels associate
Former sergeant Robbie Taylor seeks reinstatement with the Saskatoon Police Service, arguing there was an abuse of process during his original hearing.
The Rivers State Police Command has detained a police officer in connection with the fatal shooting of Anthony Obodo, a 22-year-old UNIPORT graduate, in Port Harcourt. A statement released by the Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Blessing Agabe Kaborlo, on Friday revealed that the altercation between Obodo and the officer, Corporal Alfred Louis, took place on August 27, 2026, resulting in Obodo's death and injuries to two other bystanders.
The incident led to the officer being attacked by an angry mob, causing him multiple injuries. Corporal Louis and his team are now under investigation at the State Criminal Investigation Department, where they will face disciplinary action in accordance with the law. The police command emphasized that the officer's actions are unacceptable and do not align with professional policing standards, vowing to hold erring officers strictly accountable.
Obodo, a recent UNIPORT graduate, is believed to have been a victim of unethical police conduct, which the command will not tolerate.
