Man arrested after slashing Winnipeg police cruiser tire: WPS
An 18-year-old man was arrested after allegedly acting verbally aggressive and slashing the tire of a Winnipeg police cruiser on Sunday, the service said.
Winnipeg - The family of Eishia Hudson, a First Nations teenager fatally shot by Winnipeg police in 2020, is once again demanding a public inquiry into police killings of Indigenous individuals. Eishia's father, William Hudson, is urging the province to investigate the broader issue of police-related deaths and how Manitoba handles such investigations.
The inquest, which concluded last week, found that an officer discharged two shots at Eishia, believing the safety of his fellow officers was at risk during a liquor store robbery and police chase. Judge Margaret Wiebe will deliver her final report, outlining measures to prevent similar incidents in the future.
