BURNABY, B.C.
— A Vancouver police constable told a coroner's inquest that"time was standing still" as he waited for advanced life support paramedics to arrive and help revive 33-year-old Myles Gray after he was beaten by officers trying to arrest him.
Gray had been in Vancouver making a delivery to a florists' supply shop for the business he operated on the Sunshine Coast, and the inquest has heard the initial 911 call was about an agitated man who sprayed a woman with a garden hose. Gray's symptoms suggested the officers weren't dealing with someone who simply didn't want to be arrested, said Cain, who had previously worked as a paramedic.
A statement from the BC Coroners Service said it no longer recognizes excited delirium as a cause of death in its investigations, saying the decision"was made in response to the evidence-based literature changing over time." Cain's communication with Gray changed from telling him he was under arrest to saying help was on the way, the officer said.
Cain also told the inquest on Friday that a police union representative told him not to make handwritten notes after the incident, echoing earlier testimony the jury heard from two other officers.
