The fiancée of a man found dead in the snow after a crash last week in Ottawa is remembering him as a devoted father who worked long hours and came so near to seeing his family again.
The Special Investigations Unit (SIU), Ontario’s police watchdog, said Ottawa police responded at 11:30 p.m. that night to reports of a vehicle rollover.
Officers did not locate anyone in or around the vehicle, the SIU said, and subsequently left the scene.
But the next morning, a police officer returned to the scene and found a dead man nearby, beneath the snow.
As always, ACAB.
Honestly, it’s hard to tell what’s going on at this point, or whether this guy could have been saved if the police had found him on the first pass (I can’t see any mention of an exact cause of death). Right now, this looks more like incompetence and/or difficult conditions for a search than any kind of malice. Of course, that may change when and if more information is revealed.
