That’s everybody’s goal.”“But there are scenarios that may have to evolve where the police will have to escalate and use force to start arresting individuals and removing vehicles that are blocking the area,” Bordeleau added.“That is a scenario that presents some significant risks and consequences that people need to be able to really willingly accept.” Ottawa police vow ‘surge and contain’ response to trucker convoy ‘occupation’ All eyes are on Ottawa’s current police chief, Peter Sloly, as the demonstrations enter their ninth day.Ottawa police services board chair Diane Deans called a special meeting of the board for 4:30 p.m.

Jason Van Dyke released from prison after serving less than half his sentence
CHICAGO - Former Chicago police officer Jason Van Dyke was released from state custody Thursday morning after serving three years and four months for the murder of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald.Jordan Abudayyeh, a spokeswoman for the governor, said Van Dyke was released Thursday morning, though she didn't have any other details, including where he had been imprisoned.Van Dyke, who is white, had been in custody since he was convicted of second-degree murder and aggravated battery for the October 2014 shooting death of McDonald, who was armed with a knife as he walked away from the officer. Van Dyke served less than half of his sentence of six years and nine months, securing an early release for behaving well in prison.Van Dyke leaves prison at a tenuous time for the city and its police force.Activists and family of McDonald have called for Van Dyke to be charged federally and condemned his early release.DOWNLOAD THE FOX 32 NEWS APP"It just reinforces this feeling of hopelessness in African American communities, and reinforces the thought that police can continue their oppressive behavior in those communities and be either exonerated or given light sentences," said Chico Tillmon, a senior research fellow at the University of Chicago Crime Lab and a former gang member.Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot said in a statement Thursday there is much work to be done to heal from the murder of McDonald."I know some Chicagoans remain disheartened and angry about Jason Van Dyke’s sentence for the murder of Laquan McDonald.
