THUNDER BAY - Family members of Don Mamakwa and Roland McKay, two Indigenous men who died while in custody at the Thunder Bay Police Service headquarters, say they hope the inquest into their deaths will lead to real change, so no family has to experience the same kind of pain.
Mamakwa, 44, of Kasabonika First Nation, died on Aug. 3, 2014 at the Thunder Bay Police Service's Balmoral Street headquarters.The Special Investigations Unit found no grounds to charge any of the involved officers in either of the deaths. A 911 call was first received on the afternoon of Aug. 2, 2014 from a passerby reporting a man who was "passed out" near the corner of Donald Street and Brodie Street.
Mamakwa was arrested and charged with public intoxication and breaching bail conditions of abstaining from alcohol. Paramedics with Superior North EMS also attended the scene and McKay was noted to have a high heart rate and high blood pressure, but he was cleared and not taken to the hospital. Family members of McKay and Mamakwa, who testified before the inquest on Tuesday, say they hope nothing like this ever happens again.
