Police “made a mistake” in 2017 killing
Six years ago, police responded to a 911 call from an Île Bizard woman who was afraid that her son, who’d mixed pain meds and alcohol, was going to try to drive his car. By the time the police visit was over, Koray Kevin Celik was dead – kicked, choked and beaten with batons.
The coroner’s report is in, and contains only one recommendation: there needs to be better communication between 911 and police, especially in cases of mental distress.

I see nothing in the article about problems with 911/police communication. It states the opposite, that police must gather info onsite and never rely only on the infos from 911 (think of any swatting case). It present police’s need to gather info on site as the only standard that was not met. It never says that the info should have come from 911. Is the coroner report different from what the article says?
