Crown advises not to lay charges related to homicide in death of Thomas Cameron

A senior crown attorney has advised police to not lay any charges related to homicide after a male died from serious injuries inflicted in the Air Canada Window Park on May 21, 2021.

At the time of the incident bystanders flagged down Cadets who provided emergency first aid on the victim. He was transported to hospital but died from his injuries two days later.

The deceased has been identified as 30-year-old Thomas Earl Cameron.

Police arrested a 23-year-old Aaron David Woodhouse near the scene and placed him under arrest. He was charged with Aggravated Assault, Possession of a Weapon and two counts of Fail to Comply with Condition of Release Order.

After Cameron died police consulted Manitoba Prosecution Services. A thorough review of the circumstances of the death was done leading to the crown advising no charges should be laid related to homicide against Woodhouse. The crown determined that what would otherwise be an unlawful act was committed to defend himself. which is considered reasonable under the circumstances.
