A baby was killed in Canada when police fired into a van during the process to free it from an attempted kidnapping.
A one-year-old baby was killed in Canada when police fired on a van during the operation to free it from an alleged kidnapping attempt.
Investigators in the case have yet to confirm whether the police fire killed the boy or if the kidnapper, his father, killed him, according to the British newspaper The Guardian.
Police spokeswoman Monica Haddon said it was too early to know why officers fired at the truck and it was too early to know exactly what happened.
In the details of the story, early Thursday morning, a resident of the Kawartha Lakes complex in Ontario received a call from police, speaking of the shooting and the alleged kidnapping of the father of her one-year-old son.
Police identified the father’s car on a country road, and after trying to stop him, the van collided with the police car and another vehicle, and the van also struck an officer who was standing near the police car and was injured.
Later, three policemen fired at the father’s truck and the boy was in the back seat, shot and killed at the scene.
The 33-year-old father was hit by a police fire and taken to hospital in critical condition, and the officer who was struck by the van is recovering in a Toronto hospital.
The Ontario Provincial Police Chief expressed his condolences to the boy’s family and asked the public to refrain from speculating on the events as soon as they occur, while investigations continue to find out the circumstances of the accident.
