Family of ‘Iggy’ Dedam speaks out after he was shot and killed by RCMP.

Amber Joseph says when she arrived on the scene just after her brother Steven Dedam was shot by the RCMP, she was shocked.

“When I came in they didn’t have compression on him,” she told APTN News. “He was shot three times. The first thing they did was handcuff him and say he was ‘under arrest.’

Steven ‘Iggy’ Dedam, 33, was shot by RCMP officers during a wellness check on Sept. 8 at his home in Elsipogtog First Nation, about an hour north of Moncton, New Brunswick.
