Officers responded to 37 Francine Dr., near Leslie St. and McNicoll Ave., around 9 a.m. and located the mortally wounded victim on the front porch.

“He appeared to be suffering from stab wounds,” Const. Wendy Drummond said. Police immediately suspected the man had been murdered [striking more yip-yap about the school lockdown, including a hastily dispatched rent-a-cop].

Homicide detectives stopped by the scene for a brief look around and soon after officially deemed the man’s death a murder, the city’s 41st killing of the year.

...he started waving that knife around? The point is, I don't think cops were dealing with a man who was gonna respond to "pretty, pretty please"...

Alok Mukherjee, chair of the Toronto Police Services Board, took a similar view. “I always worry about the possibility that if we give more hardware, whether police officers will still make every possible effort to use their skills and communication and de-escalation before they use the hardware.”

If Sammy Yatim's father (and let's give him the benefit of the doubt) couldn't live with, never mind reason with his own son... why does Alok Mukherjee assume the cops (faced by a screaming man with a knife) would be able to "use their words" to soothe Sammy's inner demons?

Worse, the only justice they have anything to do with is the sort preferred by the Queen in Alice in Wonderland. “No! No!” she cried. “Sentence first — verdict afterwards.”

The fact that young Mr Yatim had been exposing himself and brandishing a knife in a very public venue continues to be seen as irrelevant. The fact that Mr Yatim had, at the moment he was shot, charged at police, screaming like a madman with a knife in his hand is similarly glossed over.

Perhaps they'll have to rewrite the procedural manual at the Ontario Police College.
