Coroner’s inquest into death of Brydon Whitstone begins Monday
The coroner’s inquest into the death of Brydon Whitstone begins Monday at Court of Queen’s Bench in Battleford.
The first of five days set aside for the inquest will begin at 10 a.m. The remaining start times will be determined by presiding coroner Robert Kennedy.
Whitstone, 22, was fatally shot on Oct. 21, 2017, in an altercation with RCMP in North Battleford.
RCMP have said they pursued a vehicle after reports of a man being chased and shot at in the city. The chase ended shortly after the suspect rammed a cruiser and then officers opened fire.
