FREDERICTON — The chief of a New Brunswick First Nation that was home to a man killed by the RCMP last year says it was infuriating to learn Tuesday that no criminal charges would be laid in the case.
Chief Bill Ward of the Metepenagiag First Nation describes Rodney Levi, who was fatally shot by police outside a home on June 12, as kind and caring.
The province’s prosecutions service released its report Tuesday concluding the RCMP officers involved acted lawfully to protect themselves and civilians who were present at the home in Sunny Corner, N.B.
