From BBC news
He says police had attended the residence on multiple occasions over the past several years, dealing with mental health concerns of the suspect.
The suspect was apprehended on different occasions for assessment and follow-up under the Mental Health Act, he tells the press.
Asked if any of the interactions the suspect had with police had anything to do with weapons, McDonald replies "yes".
The deputy commissioner says police have attended the residence in the past, approximately two years ago, where firearms were seized under the criminal code. He adds that the lawful owner of those firearms petitioned for them to be returned, and they were.
There's questions that need answering there. Like why was nothing done after several police visits citing mental health, and with the interactions having to do with weapons? And the weapons given back?!? He might not have been the lawful owner but come on, they knew about him.
Because if the answer is "because trans" then in an ideal world there'd be outrage. But I suspect it'll be swept under the carpet, again. Talk of not blaming the whole community, again. Saying just about anything to avoid facing the reasons head on.
Those poor victims 😢
