Original Note:
While Afolabi Stephen Opaso appears to have been undergoing a mental health crisis, he was not shot for that reason. He was shot, according to police, for confronting them with two knives and refusing to disarm when they responded to a call reporting his erratic behavior. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-man-shot-by-winnipeg-police-was-having-a-mental-health-crisis-lawyer/
