The police service leading the investigation into the drowning deaths of eight people in the St. Lawrence River is now facing a Quebec provincial police probe over a shooting incident last Friday involving two officers.
Akwesasne Mohawk Police Service Chief Shawn Dulude told CBC News on Tuesday that the incident was referred to Quebec's Bureau des enquêtes indépendantes and that the Sûreté du Québec was tasked with conducting an internal investigation after an Akwesasne officer fired at least twice into an SUV while trying to arrest the driver on a 2020 warrant.
Dulude has previously told reporters officers investigated the claims using heat-sensing technology, but found nothing. Two women, who are cousins, were parked outside the home of Katheryn Square, their 84-year-old grandmother. Square lives on Akwesasne Street, a few metres away from a sign that reads, "Drive Slowly Children Live Here."
Katheryn Square said she witnessed part of the incident and heard one of the officers say that the driver "almost hit one of the officers." Pictured is a bullet hole in the front windshield of an SUV after it was fired upon by an Akwesasne police officer.
