Barley Risotto and Kimchi: A Culinary Crossroads| SaltWire #food #cookingshorts #kimchiThe 25-year-old woman who was shot and wounded by a police officer after fleeing a traffic stop in Westboro was under a five-year weapons ban, according to her court record, imposed in 2021, when she was convicted of assault.
The police service would not confirm the identity of the officer involved in the shooting and directed all media inquiries to the province’s Special Investigations Unit, which has taken over the investigation. She was under a five-year weapons prohibition, according to her prior criminal record, imposed in October 2021 following a conviction for assault.
The conviction came with a discretionary weapons ban, which was imposed for five years on Oct. 5, 2021, by Ontario Court Justice Mitch Hoffman, who also ordered Laplante to submit a DNA sample. She was handed a six-month conditional sentence with 12 months’ probation at that time and was ordered by Justice Catherine Kehoe to participate in anger management counselling and treatment for substance and alcohol abuse.
