Ontario’s chief coroner has asked an outside police force to help Thunder Bay police investigate the deaths of two indigenous teens.
Dr. Dirk Huyer has asked the York Regional Police from the Toronto area to further investigate what happened to 14-year-old Josiah Begg and 17-year-old Tammy Keeash.
Keeash’s body was found in a Thunder Bay floodway early last month and the body of Begg was found less than two weeks later.
The chief coroner has also asked Nishnawbe-Aski Police Service to bring an indigenous perspective to the investigation and has requested that York police visit the First Nations communities that Begg and Keeash are from.
Thunder Bay police, who have been heavily criticized by indigenous leaders, have welcomed the coroner’s decision to bring outside help.
