"Jaz was the sweetest you ever wanted to meet. He was always there when any of us called him," his aunt said through tears. "It's just a great loss."

Scripps News Cleveland sat down with former Akron Police Officer Tim Dimoff, who is often utilized as an expert in officer-involved shootings when they go to court.

“When did they pull up? What observations did they make? How long after pulling into that area did the officer shoot? What was the rough distance that he shot at? What was the reason? What did he think he saw? After the shots fired, how much time before the officers approach the individual? If that time frame is questionable, we need to examine the why behind that. Why did they wait X amount of minutes before they approached him? I'm sure the question is going to come up as to why was first aid not applied immediately,” Dimoff rattled off.

Scripps News Cleveland spoke with the Akron Chapter President of NAACP, Judy Hill, about her thoughts on the body camera footage.

Officials held a news conference on Friday, where they were asked why the officer who fatally shot Tucker is not being named. Malik said the name wasn't being released due to concerns about the officer's safety.

Justice Janet McMurtry sequestered a 12-person jury to determine a verdict against Regina-based chiropractor Ruben Manz.

The provincial government is facing increasing pressure to tap into the underused and tolled Highway 407 to alleviate congestion on Highway 401.

"We want answers," Tucker's mother, Ashley Green, said during Friday's presser. "It hurt me to see that no one helped my baby."

"The feasibility study will outline potential models that will best serve the community which may include a local, self-administered police service, possibly regional policing, additional law enforcement supports, or the status quo," Mike Ellis, Alberta's minister of public safety and emergency services, said.

"He should not have had to die like this," said co-counsel Stanley Jackson during the presser. "It's only because the Akron Police Department and the mayor did nothing after Mike Jones' death, after Jayland Walker's death. They knew that they had an issue with their police department. They knew they needed training."

A U.S. company is recalling cucumbers sold in Ontario and other Canadian provinces due to possible salmonella contamination.

The government is spending $6 million over two years for the program. Each community and municipality could receive up to $30,000 for an independent study to determine if a new police service is "a better fit."

Aside from that, there are several questions that come to Dimoff’s mind that need to be answered and will likely be brought up by prosecutors.

Elon Musk had a seat at the family table for Thanksgiving dinner at Mar-a-Lago, joining President-elect Donald Trump, Melania Trump and their 18-year-old son.

“That can be because [suspects are] non-compliant or it can be because they have serious injuries. The officers were trying to get compliance. I believe that if the subject was or able or did extend his hands, the officers would have immediately approached him,” Dimoff further explained.

New details suggest that there were communication issues between the pilots of a charter flight and the control tower at Montreal's Mirabel airport when a Boeing 737 made an emergency landing on Wednesday.

“If the testimony, the videos, the other reports, other officers can and do corroborate that other officers felt the same danger to maybe not them, but to the officer that fired or one of them, that's going to be a real important aspect,” he answered. “It's actually much better because let's just say there's six to eight officers there, it's going to be awfully difficult for all eight officers to have the same type of comments, justification and be able to explain it in a way that synchronizes in a totality of opinions and thoughts.”

“It's not justified,” she said. “We're sick and tired of being sick and tired. I'm really tired of doing these interviews with you. I'd love to be able to come on and say, ‘Hey, the city is making the right moves.’”

Saskatchewan RCMP are asking property owners in the rural area in the RM of Laird to check farm outbuildings or sheds in their area for a missing 60-year-old man.

Residents of Evergreen Village mobile home park in Summerside, P.E.I., who have had an eviction notice looming over their heads may be able to stay in their homes after all.

Dimoff said there is still so much to follow this shooting as the video only shows bits and pieces of an everlasting moment.

Dimoff continued, “Ironically none of them approached the subject during that time period, which to me potentially means that all of those officers didn't feel safe or secure in approaching the subject. You didn't have confusion in the officers, and you didn't have disagreement on the follow-up to it. I think that's an important factor.”

It’s a day for digging in Bruce County. School buses across Bruce and Grey counties were cancelled Friday due to snowsqualls that dumped as much as 15 centimetres of snow on the region overnight.

“There was a firearm recovered at the scene which at least tells us this subject probably could have been involved in the shots fired that the officers may have heard and or may have been reported through their dispatch service. The other question comes up: Did he fire the gun? [And then] saw the officers approaching and did he hide the gun in his pocket? So once again, we're going to need more details from all the officers,” Dimoff said.

Political leaders and press freedom groups on Friday were left shell-shocked after Montreal news outlet La Presse revealed that a hit man had offered $100,000 to have one of its crime reporters assassinated.

A winter storm is moving over British Columbia's coast, bringing strong winds, heavy snow and freezing rain as snowfall warnings continue for much of the province's Interior.

ACP grant

“In hindsight, the amount of time that expired between the shooting and the initiation of physical aid to Jazmir is deeply troubling to me. I want to be clear that any unreasonable delay in the rendering of aid by police officers is unacceptable and has no place in Akron," said Malik. "This issue will also be part of our internal investigation, but in the meantime, Chief Harding has instructed APD leadership to conduct roll call trainings immediately with all of our patrol officers regarding on scene security and rendering aid.”

Police in Surrey say they called in the heavily armed Emergency Response Team to arrest a man who allegedly had a gun Friday morning.

Once officers came in physical contact with Tucker, it does not appear that they immediately rendered aid. Instead, Tucker’s pockets are sorted through.

The officer who fired his weapon at Tucker is on paid administrative leave as the State of Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigations reviews the incident.

He said, “Many times when you're outside and an officer is approaching a dangerous situation, the rifle has a scope on it. The rifle sometimes is a lot easier to handle when shooting at a distance. I'm guessing that maybe an officer felt the subject was so far away that he needed to grab a rifle to be more accurate, to be able to control the subject in case the subject returns fire or does anything else aggressive. That's usually why they'll grab a rifle versus their personal handgun.”

“A 15-year-old or anyone is no match for a gun, especially if you don't see a gun in possession and based on what I saw in that video, I did not see a gun in the hands of that young person,” Hill said. “What I did not see was a young man, a 15-year-old with a gun, pointing it at an officer. I did not see that.”

According to the Akron Police Department, a pair of patrol officers were parked in their marked cruiser at East Avenue and Vernon Odom Boulevard on the night of Nov. 28 when they heard gunshots nearby and exited their patrol car.

Again, the video does not adequately show whether Tucker had drawn the weapon previously, nor does it show a clear visual of the moments that led to why he was shot.

There is no audio in the first 30 seconds of the video and it’s unclear what the officer saw when approaching Tucker based on the footage provided. Lights were pointed at him, and guns were covering most of what we could see in the video.

Malik released a statement regarding the shooting of the 15-year-old and the ongoing investigation by the Bureau of Criminal Investigation. The statement read, in part:

Less than a year after an LED volume wall was introduced to the film world in Saskatchewan, the equipment is making its exit from the province.

Akron Councilman at Large Eric D. Garrett Sr. released a statement, calling for the officer who shot the teen to be fired.

What is evident is the officer who shot Tucker did so multiple times, but the audio associated with the shooting was unable to be provided.

"Our support for these local policing initiatives has led some people to wrongly suggest that the government is abandoning the exploration of an Alberta police service, so let me be clear…the provincial government hasn't made any decision about the Alberta Police Service," Ellis said.

Alberta Indigenous and municipalpolicetransition grant program

Tucker’s family, along with a Cochran Firm Ohio lawyer participating in an independent investigation into the shooting, held a very brief press conference Thursday night.

A U.S. company is recalling cucumbers sold in Ontario and other Canadian provinces due to possible salmonella contamination.

He explained how incident reports from that night explaining in detail what the officers on the scene saw and heard would be the most important piece of evidence.

“What's interesting is the officer gets out of the cruiser, and it really isn't that much time after he gets out that he does fire his rifle at the suspect. One of the things that we need to understand is when he got out and was starting to approach the suspect and then when he fired, there has to be some very important visual... he saw something,” Dimoff noted.

Several police officers and city staff attended a homeless encampment in Barrie’s south end on Thursday morning to inform the individuals living there they would have to vacate the area.
