A coroner's inquest into the death of Sammy Yatim has been postponed.
The inquest examining Sammy Yatim's death more than nine years ago was set to begin Monday, but the coroner's office says it has been delayed after a motion was brought forward Sunday that needs to be heard before the proceedings can begin.
She says a new date for the start of the inquest will be scheduled once a decision on the motion has been issued. The shooting set off a wave of public outrage and protests after cell phone footage of the shooting was posted online.
