Schofield march through Guelph

GUELPH – People marched through Guelph on Sept. 29 in an effort to push for answers about how 36-year-old Nathaniel Schofield died in OPP custody on July 10. The rally and march was organized by Schofield’s mother Faye Dzikewich, her lawyer Davin Charney and OPIRG Guelph.

Mike Asmann is a family friend who “knew Nat when he was little,” Dzikewich said. People met outside the Boathouse Tea Room on Gordan Street at 2pm and then marched to the Ontario Court of Justice on Wyndham Street, where a rally began around 2:45pm. Dzikewich was at the courthouse waiting for Schofield to arrive on July 10 when she was informed of her son’s death, which Ontario’s Special Investigations Unit is investigating.
