A mother in Winnipeg says a confrontation with police has left her and her family shaken.
Charity Tom, who is Sayisi Dene, says on May 21 at around 4:00 a.m., she awoke to the sound of banging on her door. It was the Winnipeg police.
An officer told her they received a call about an unsupervised child roaming outside. Tom told officers they had the wrong house and that her children were sleeping inside.
Tom said a few minutes later, police officers knocked again and then entered the house.
Now multiple police are entering the house. One is struggling with Tom.
Charity: What’s the badge number?
Police: Get up. What’s your name?
Charity: Charity
Police: You wanna get the cuffs?
Charity: No, I just told you
Police: So then stop acting like a c*nt
Seems quite ignorant.
