North Huron councilors sat in stunned silence when Jason Younan, Inspector-Detachment Commander for Huron County OPP, informed them of the amount of violence, property crimes and gun crimes in Wingham. The bullet proof vest he was wearing during his warning seemed to impart the severity of the situation somewhat effectively when speaking about home invasions/robberies.
Councilors expressed the frustration of criminals being released after a few hours to re-offend. “What can we do?”
One councilor stated that if this was the United States we would “take care of business” (shoot to kill) if anyone broke into our home. It was made clear that you must say that you either feared serious harm or death to justify your use of extreme force as you can see in the video. Please watch the video below. Lock your front doors, even when you are home, and remove all “Welcome” mats/signs. Now, STAND YOUR GROUND!
