BREAKING: A 24-year-old man has pleaded guilty to assault stemming from an incident at an election campaign event in London, Ont., in September 2021 when gravel was thrown in the direction of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Shane Marshall, 24, pleaded guilty on Tuesday to common assault, admitting he threw gravel in the direction of Justin Trudeau as the Liberal leader stepped aboard a campaign bus in September 2021.
Shane Marshall of St. Thomas entered a guilty plea Tuesday to the lesser charge of common assault, on the same day his trial on charges of assault with a weapon was supposed to start. "I'll be communicating with the Crown's office on sentencing and there will probably be a joint submission on sentencing, and that was largely the incentive for the plea this morning," said Reidy.
In an agreed statement of facts read in court, Marshall admitted he picked up a handful of gravel and threw it in the direction of Trudeau and a crowd of security people and supporters as the Liberal leader stepped aboard a campaign bus. Trudeau was leaving a campaign stop at a brewery in East London on the evening of Sept. 6, 2021, two weeks before the federal election and he was re-elected as prime minister.
