On behalf of the BCCOS, our deepest condolences to everyone affected by this tragedy. Our thoughts are with you.
It is with deep sorrow that I confirm that #OPP Provincial Constable Tarun Bali was killed in the line of duty this afternoon in Hearst. His courage and commitment to serving others will never be forgotten. As we grieve this immeasurable loss, I extend our heartfelt condolences to his loved ones, colleagues and the policing community. #HeroesInLife
