Family learned of SIU’s fatal shooting findings through social media: First Nations

The SIU found the officer’s use of force justified but referred a 40-minute first aid delay to oversight amid First Nations’ criticism of poor family notification.

  • Ontario First Nations leaders expressed concerns about the release of a police watchdog's report into the fatal shooting of Tyresse Roundsky, saying the family and community learned crucial details through social media.
  • The Special Investigations Unit report found evidence suggesting the officer who shot the 23-year-old man unnecessarily delayed rendering first aid for about 40 minutes after the shooting.
  • The SIU director concluded the officer's use of force was justified since Roundsky posed a threat and was advancing toward the officer with a knife, but the report's release re-traumatized the family and community.
