Gloria Assin Inquest Begins Today

An inquest is scheduled to begin Monday looking into the death of Grassy Narrows resident Gloria Assin.

The vehicle was struck by a transport while going through a red light at the intersection of the Kenora By-Pass and Redditt Road in September of 2012.

An inquest is mandatory anytime someone is killed while in police custody.

A week is being set aside to hear from 12 witnesses.

Dr. Michael Wilson will be presiding over the hearing.
