Family and friends of an Indigenous man shot dead by New Brunswick RCMP say they’re angered an investigation has found the June shooting was justified, and are demanding changes to the training officers receive for handling mental health calls.
Rodney Levi, a 48-year-old father from Metepenagiag First Nation, was killed by police called to a backyard barbecue at his pastor’s home near Sunny Corner, N.B., on June 12, 2020. Mr. Levi, who told people he was feeling depressed and acting on edge, was shot when he lunged at an officer while holding a pair of kitchen knives, according to a newly released report into his death.
FREDERICTON The family of a New Brunswick man shot and killed by police last June is calling for the release of a report into his death. Rodney Levi, who was from the Metepenagiag First Nation, was shot dead by the RCMP on the evening of June 12 in Miramichi, N.B., after police had responded to a complaint about a disturbance in a home. Levi s killing came days after an Edmundston, N.B., police officer shot and killed Chantel Moore, a 26-year-old Indigenous woman, during a wellness check. Quebec s police watchdog, known as the Bureau des enquetes independantes, was tasked with investigating the shooting because New Brunswick does not have a similar agency of its own. The watchdog says it forwarded its report to New Brunswick s Public Prosecutions Services and to the coroner in the case, on Dec. 16.
