A Toronto police constable has pleaded guilty to assault causing bodily harm and careless use of a firearm after shooting a Black man who was experiencing homelessness and carrying a knife in a park near Black Creek Drive and Trethewey Drive more than two years ago.

Const. Andrew Davis was originally charged with one count of aggravated assault and one count of discharging a firearm with intent by the Special Investigations Unit, six months after the shooting of Devon Fowlin in February 2023.

Dramatic police body worn camera video played in court Wednesday shows Fowlin being tased and shot.

Davis, who the court heard had 53 weeks on the job at the time, was assigned to 12 Division at the time but was on a day off on the day of the incident and was on his way to a “paid duty” detail at Keele Street and Eglinton Avenue.
