"What happened next was no joke. Nouisser believes his family was the victim of a possible “swatting call” and was publicly humiliated by the RCMP in their quiet Peachland neighbourhood. Swatting is a hoax 911 call typically involving hostages, gunfire, and other acts of extreme violence. It’s an issue police departments are well aware of, and it’s a crime."
The RCMP is not responding to calls from journalists but they did say that an apology would probably not be forthcoming.
Read the rest of the incident and share your thoughts on what the family's next move should be.
