The family of the Norfolk County gunsmith fatally shot in his home by a Toronto police officer have filed a civil lawsuit against Toronto police seeking $23 million in damages.
Rodger Kotanko, 70, was shot and killed Nov. 3 as Toronto police searched his workshop on Port Ryerse Road, west of Port Dover.
In a summary accompanying the statement of claim, Simcoe lawyer Michael Smitiuch alleges the search warrant was “unlawfully executed as it was not presented the day of the raid and was obtained using irrelevant and prejudicial information.
“It’s also alleged that police recklessly targeted Kotanko, negligently planned the raid and exercised excessive and unjustifiable force when they stormed his home workshop, firing four shots into him. It’s also alleged that the officers unlawfully detained and restrained Kotanko’s wife and prevented her from providing him with comfort after he was shot and dying.”
