Mother speaks out after SIU lays no charges in son’s police shooting death

In the hours before Toronto police shot and killed Devon LaFleur, they were informed by his friend that he was carrying a pellet gun, says Ontario’s Special Investigations Unit.

His mother, Rena LaFleur, says officers were also told her son had serious mental health issues and had stopped taking his medication.

Devon LaFleur was wanted for armed robbery and car theft when, on the night of March 4, 2016, he was hit with eight police bullets on a North York street.
