Terry Dion Ironbow, 29, was struck by a car driven by an RCMP officer, on the Trans-Canada Highway in Valleyview, at around 12:30 a.m. on Dec. 11. The officer had just finished his shift and was headed home.

Ironbow spent several days in critical condition in Royal Inland Hospital before dying from his injuries on Thursday. Police did not release information about his death until Monday.
RCMP said Ironbow has a history with police.

I guess that makes a difference.

But, I’m not sure how.
