The Winnipeg Police Service has announced charges against a security guard alleged to have assaulted an Indigenous man last weekend using brass knuckles — a weapon outlawed in “Canada.”
The 23-year-old Impact Security Group (ISG) guard was arrested Monday, police said, and he faces charges of assault with a weapon, unauthorized possession of a prohibited or restricted weapon, and uttering threats. On Tuesday, the province confirmed the guard’s license had also been suspended.
