The province's police watchdog has reopened its investigation into a Brantford, Ont., police shooting of an 18-year-old man.
Evan Jones was fatally shot after police responded to a domestic dispute (on Sympatica Cres.) on Aug. 25, 2010.
A Special Investigations Unit probe concluded that Const. Adam Hill shot Jones four times.
Jones had refused to comply with demands to drop two knives and a meat clever he was using to threaten police.
The SIU concluded that there were no grounds for criminal charges to be brought against Hill.
On Wednesday, SIU director Tony Loparco announced the case was being reopened as a result of "materially new information coming to light," but said the nature of that information won't be disclosed while the investigation is ongoing.
The SIU investigates reports involving police where there has been death, serious injury or allegations of sexual assault.
