The family of a man shot and killed by Winnipeg police on Thursday is remembering him as a funny person who would "light up the whole room" with his humour and laughter. They said a 36-year-old man — who they did not identify, but who the family confirms was Collins — was shot just over 40 minutes later. Emergency dispatchers got the 911 call from someone in the house reporting a man with a gun, the chief said. Shortly after that, the man walked out the front door and confronted officers, Smyth said, and that's when an officer shot him. (Submitted by family)Lisa and Tianna say they believe the gun Collins had was a BB gun.
