‘Nobody really knows what’s going on except for what the police are releasing,’ says Joseph Brightnose.
Members of Norway House Cree Nation gathered at the local RCMP detachment and demanded answers as to why a non-verbal 16-year-old boy who uses a walker was tased.
“He is a voiceless being. He can’t stand for himself, so we’re here to be the voices for him,” said Joseph Brightnose who worked with the boy. “We’re here to stand for him.”
According to a statement from police, Norway House RCMP received a call on Saturday around 12:10 a.m. about a violent assault in progress at a Kinosao Sipi Cree Nation residence. A suspect was threatening to stab a pre-teen girl.
Officers located the 16-year-old male suspect standing outside the residence. According to the RCMP, the boy was instructed to show his hands but refused, instead, produced a large knife. The RCMP then tased him. It’s not clear why the boy had a knife.
