A Nova Scotia Mountie has testified that a single glance from the bloodied driver of a Mazda hatchback was the final confirmation that he had a mass killer lined up in his pistol sights.
Const. Craig Hubley, an RCMP dog handler, joined Const. Ben MacLeod, an emergency response officer, today to tell a public inquiry how they ended the 13-hour rampage by a gunman who killed 22 people on April 18-19, 2020.
Over three hours later, when he and MacLeod pulled into an Enfield, N.S., gas station at 11:24 a.m. to refuel, Hubley said he noticed a man wearing a white T-shirt in a grey Mazda at a pump across from his police SUV. Hubley told the inquiry he was "100 per cent" sure it was the killer, and called to MacLeod, "Benny, it's him," as he lined the killer up in the sights of his pistol.
