Three police officers in Canada have been charged with manslaughter in the death of an 18-month-old boy, nearly two years after he was killed by police gunfire.
The officers, from the community of Kawartha Lakes in Ontario, were called in November 2020, to a domestic dispute involving a gun and the suspected abduction of the one-year-old by his father.
Three officers then fired their guns towards the vehicle, according to the SIU. Jameson Shapiro, who was sitting in the back of the pickup truck, was hit by a bullet and pronounced dead at the scene. The father died of gunshot wounds one week later.
The officers are due to appear in court on October 6 in the Ontario city of Lindsay.
