Provincial police say Const. Nathan Parker is charged with assaulting a police officer, assault with intent to resist arrest and assault with a weapon. The charges appear to shed some light on the puzzling shooting on Nov. 29, 2018 that happened while a group of officers were investigating a collision from a few days before, around Roland Road and Effingham Street.
