Steven Margetts is paralyzed from the chest down and has limited mobility of his hands and arms, following a dirt bike crash near Hope back in May 2020.
A quadriplegic Kelowna man is suing the RCMP after he was allegedly tased and assaulted by an officer during a traffic stop back in August 2022, leaving him with a number of broken bones.
Margetts is paralyzed from the chest down and has limited mobility of his hands and arms, following a dirt bike crash near Hope back in May 2020. In the crash, he broke his spine in three areas, and also broke his ribs, two eye-sockets, his upper and lower jaw, both mandibles, nose, fractured the back of his skull and his brain was bleeding.
The suit claims the officer then “maliciously and without any lawful reason” used his Taser on Margetts “without any warning.”
