Jury Trial Chosen by Man Accused in Kelowna Bridge Bomb Scare

  • Roy Winter, a 61-year-old Kelowna man, chose to be tried by judge and jury for 11 charges linked to a bridge shutdown incident.
  • The chosen trial follows an incident on January 27 when a van connected to Winter was parked on Bennett Bridge, leading to threats about explosives.
  • The Bennett Bridge shutdown lasted most of the day, closing the main route between Kelowna and West Kelowna, and Winter allegedly posted a manifesto against RCMP ahead of it.
  • Winter faces charges including arson, making or possessing explosives, assaulting an officer, and uttering threats, while a pre-trial conference is scheduled for July 10.
  • Winter remains in custody without applying for bail, and the trial will take place in Supreme Court on an undetermined date.
