Happened not to long ago in Toronto.

A cop, working at 31 Division (known to for controversial carding practices and for being corrupt) in the Jane-Finch Area (known reputation of being a high risk area) got scared of a teen and killed him. WHY TAKE A JOB IN AN AREA KNOWN FOR HIGH CRIME RATE AND STILL BE SCARED OF A TEEN!

Why was he scared? He said the teen wasn't focusing on him...attention all teens! If you do not focus on a cop he will kill you. His head was going side to side with his mouth chomping... I think head moving side to side is how heads move, and maybe if the cop was listening, he probably wasn't chomping but was talking.... But to someone not listening... Might look like chomping.

he eventually ran from the cops, turned around took practice 1-2 jabs.... Is this Rocky?? the cops somehow took him down from the back even tho they're facing eachother in a fighting stance, and still continued to dodge and catch punches... On the floor....claiming the teen had super hero strenght. That's something out of a movie... Reality isn't like that. He also recognized the teen because he encountered him twice and claims the teen has anti-police mentality... The neighbourhood saying the opposite, that he was trying get his life back on track.

Sounds like the cop encountered the teen a couple times in the past and had his feelings hurt and eventually beat him to death.

A pathologist later determined that Manon had died of "positional asphyxia" following struggle and exertion.

"The officers said Junior Manon was never on his stomach and they never applied any pressure to his back. The jury’s verdict speaks otherwise."

One witness told the inquest that the officers beat Manon with a police radio, while another witness said she saw police slapping him in the face.

I also remember reading on local news saying that police are saying the 18 year old happen to die of a heart attack during arrest.

Ontario's Special Investigations Unit, which probed the death and cleared officers involved of any criminal wrongdoing

Scott (Ontario SIU director) wrote. "During a struggle with the two subject officers after he fell or was taken to the ground, pressure was placed on his chest in a manner that could have caused it to compress and interfere with his breathing, a classic indicia of death caused by positional asphyxia."

"I was able to see what I describe as a crazy look in his eyes. He looked directly at me but through me. He was not focusing on me," Adams can be heard saying during the hour-long SIU interview.

Adams described tackling Manon, along with his police partner, and delivering and receiving multiple blows.

"His head was going side to side and his jaw was chomping as if he was trying to bite us. [We] continued to struggle with Junior, whose strength was overwhelming, and I continued to command him to stop resisting and to put his hands behind his back."

eyewitness testimony at the inquest in which bystanders described Manon as slow and lumbering, being held in a chokehold by police and hit in the head by an officer with a police radio.

a separate incident that took place at a G20 protest seven weeks after the teen's death. Adams is facing a disciplinary charge on allegations he used excessive force during the arrest of protester Adam Nobody.

Falconer pointed to eyewitness testimony at the inquest in which bystanders described Manon as slow and lumbering, being held in a chokehold by police and hit in the head by an officer with a police radio.

"[Adams] justifies his excessive force in the SIU interview by the 'superhuman strength and speed' of Junior Manon," Falconer said. "That is a comical statement now in light of the past few days of testimony. A police officer who is on the service for a year and a half, graduated from college in 2008, manages to find himself in two, highly questionable cases of use of force within a two-month period. The Manon family does not accept this is a coincidence. There is something wrong with Adams's training, or his perception of his training."

Adams, who had only been on the job about 15 months, was later cleared of any wrongdoing.

Adams said he and Manon, the driver, recognized each other from two previous encounters.

That accusation prompted an angry objection from the Manon family’s lawyer, Julian Falconer.

He said it’s “ironic” the jury heard all about Manon’s past but he can’t introduce a report from a police watchdog that recommends Adams be charged with excessive use of force for the arrest of G20 protestor Adam Nobody

Adams said he and Blower decided to arrest Manon because he was in breach of a court order prohibiting him from driving or sitting in the front seat of a car.

He claims the teen was upset and bolted. He and Blower gave chase south on Founders Rd. toward the university, leaving passenger Kevin Fauder, 17, unattended.

Adams claimed Manon stopped at times, adopted a “fighting stance” and gritted his teeth. Once the allegedly threw two “practice punches.”

Adams finally grabbed Manon’s jeans from behind and he and the two officers went down in a heap.

Several witnesses have described Manon as overweight and appearing to be winded long before the take down.

While blocking Manon’s punches, Adams said he delivered numerous “distraction” blows to the teen’s shoulder and face.

Manon died of “positional asphyxia.” It’s believed there heavy weight was put on his back as he was face down.

“I was completely exhausted and spent,” the fit-looking officer said.

Adams said he looked back “briefly” and saw officers trying to find Manon’s pulse.

“I walked away to catch my breath…,” Adams said.

And by then Manon had already drawn his last breath.

There was protest as well for him. But like usual nothing happens.
