After a lengthy investigation, Alberta’s police watchdog has concluded the use of force that resulted in the death of a Calgary woman in 2018 was justified to save a life.
The Alberta Serious Incident Response Team said police were called to Penbrooke Close S.E. at about 11 a.m. on May 17, 2018 after a report of a break and enter. About an hour later after attempts to make contact with the two people police could hear in the basement suite, five officers and a police dog entered the home.
