A wrongful death lawsuit was filed by the family of Gregory Ritchie after officers shot him to death in a 2019 confrontation.
“Our hope is that as we continue to heal we can continue to share Gregory’s story and it can be a catalyst for change. The lack of cultural and psychological empathy and training amongst some law enforcement is a danger to both officers and the community at large.
According to the SIU investigation, Ritchie was reported to police shortly before 8 a.m. by OC Transpo special constables who said they saw a man holding a knife in his jacket near the shopping mall.Article content Ritchie was struck by two shots from the officers’ Conducted Energy Weapon , which “failed to immobilize” him, the SIU concluded in February 2020.
The impact of Ritchie’s death on his family “reinforces the need for change,” Tina Hill said in a joint statement from the lawyers representing the family.
