Calgary, AB — A Canadian man is dead after a confrontation with police in his hotel room Monday.
Calgary Police officers were called to the Super 8 Motel on Monday to conduct a welfare check on one of the motel’s guests. The staff had reportedly said the guest was acting strange.
A 27-year-old man, whose name has not been released, was killed by police during the confrontation.
According to the police, they attended the room and found the door locked by a security chain when they tried to open it with a key provided by the motel.
When police spoke with the man, they say he appeared agitated and in medical distress and refused to let the officers inside the room. Police then called out EMS.
However, instead of allowing EMS to help, officers kicked down the door and violently escalated the situation. Remember that these officers were there “for this man’s safety.”
