>The Alberta Serious Incident Response Team (ASIRT) on Wednesday released a report on the police killing of 29-year-old Lionel Ernest Grey, who died &&after three shootouts with police** near High Prairie June 17-18, 2021.
>“There is no doubt that when (Grey) started shooting in the direction of the officers, he intended to kill or grievously harm them,” Block wrote, noting that by that point, Grey had already killed a police dog named Jago.
>“Their response of gunfire was proportionate. It was also necessary since (Grey) first waited to ambush them and then attempted to sneak up on them. Any other response would have exposed them to a serious risk of death.”
Yeah, that sounds pretty justified.

I love dogs as much as the next person, but the media really should focus on the important reason as to why they were cleared.
“There is no doubt that when (Grey) started shooting in the direction of the officers”.
It was a shootout.

I wish there were more controls on media corps who constantly put out misleading headlines. The guy tried to kill officers and it ended with him killing the dog (RIP😭). Of course it was justified.

Alternate headline: Man dies in shootout with police, one police dog dead.

I hope they started by shooting him in the legs and slowly working their way to the knees and then one in the ground and then let him bleed out

Reminds me of the officer-involved shooting of Lutjor Tuel in Calgary by CPS. Despite clear-as-day video evidence of him having a knife, and stabbing a K9 before being shot, his family started a gofundme saying he was unarmed and murdered in cold blood. I don’t think the gofundme was ever taken down despite the outright lying about what happened.

What the absolute fuck is this headline? This guy attempted to ambush police officers and had multiple gunfights with them where one of which led to the unfortunate death of the dog.
I guess less-inflammatory headlines don’t get as many views though.
