A Niagara-area police officer who was shot and seriously wounded, allegedly by a fellow officer, has himself been charged in connection with the shooting. Nathan Parker of the Niagara Regional Police Service (NRPS) resisted arrest, assaulted an officer and committed assault with a weapon during the altercation that led to him being shot on Nov. 29, 2018. Parker was seriously injured and airlifted to Hamilton General Hospital, according to the SIU. The puzzling shooting happened while a group of officers were investigating a collision from a few days before, in the rural community of Pelham, Ont. The SIU investigates when someone is seriously injured by a police officer.
