Constable Gurmakh Benning testified in court that after realizing the Apple watch was fake, he felt 'ripped off' and attempted to confront Chadd Facey for his money back. Following a brief chase, Facey rolled down his window to discuss the return of his money, but then fled into a ravine. This set the stage for an altercation between the officers and Facey, leading to a significant incident that resulted in Facey’s death later that day.
During the trial, it was confirmed that while Chadd Facey was tackled to the ground by Const. Calvin Au, the Crown is not alleging that the interaction directly caused Facey’s death. The focus remains primarily on the circumstances surrounding the physical confrontation and whether it constituted an assault.
