Retired judge Wally Oppal delivered his ruling on Sgt . Ron Kirkwood on Friday , following 16 days of hearings.

The woman, Lisa Rauch , 43 , was taken off life support and died in hospital a few days after the incident.

Police had been called to a housing facility after a fire broke out in a suite where Lisa was barricaded and had reportedly threatened someone with a knife.

With smoke coming from the window, police moved to enter the unit and fired three projectiles from an ARWEN.
