"Take the vehicle out."

"Marshall was part of the RCMP team that chased down Myles Sanderson, 32, on Sept. 7, 2022, three days after he killed 11 people and wounded 17 others in and around the James Smith Cree Nation."

"This decision, said Det. Sgt. Kane, gave Marshall the opportunity to make the "tactically sound" decision to follow Sanderson across the median, deliberately hit the stolen truck and force it into the ditch.

Here is the PIT Maneuver

The PIT (precision immobilization technique) maneuver requires the pursuit vehicle to nudge the rear corner of the vehicle being chased, causing it to spin to a stop.

It is considered a high-risk move at 80 km/h. Marshall, who had never been trained in the technique, was going to attempt it while driving at more than twice that speed. 

Kane testified he's watched the dashcam video repeatedly, and Marshall's nerve and resolve "is frankly quite unbelievable."

"The degree of contact between the Explorer and the Avalanche was appropriate, as it caused a controlled rotation of the truck which caused it to veer off of the road and into the ditch."
