Captain Gregory Wright, 56, has been charged by Ottawa Police for failing to give medical assistance to a fellow firefighter. The charge includes negligence causing bodily harm.
Armoured Suits Criminal Defence Lawyer, Joshua Clarke, spoke to the Ottawa Citizen. He can’t understand why police would charge the veteran firefighter.
“While we respect the criminal process, we cannot fathom why he has been charged with this offence, having done nothing wrong. It is our intent to challenge the Crown’s case if necessary. We are optimistic this can be resolved relatively quickly,” Clarke said.
