VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – There are new calls for the Police Complaints Commission to take another look at the shooting of a mentally ill man on Granville Street in 2007.

Newly released video shows officers shooting the man as he crawls towards them on the ground.

David Eby with the BC Civil Liberties Association says Paul Boyd had already been shot, was clearly injured and had dropped a bicycle chain before the fatal shot was fired.

He says the video clarifies questions raised by the criminal justice branch over conflicting evidence.

“There’s too much confusion, too much difference between the witness accounts to really know what happened,” he explains. “Well, now we know Paul Boyd was disarmed and crawling across the road for an extended period of time, which is why we’re asking them to have another look at the files now that the uncertainty is over.”

In March, the Police Complaints Commissioner decided officers did not use excessive force.
