With notes from Laura Fraser

Witness Sharon McLean, Management Consultant

Was traveling on a bus heading east bound on Oak Bay Avenue. She could see a body on the road.

She could see Anthany Dawson lying on the road. She could see him moving.

She could see the ambulance and started to walk towards Bank St. She could see Anthany again coming towards her direction.

She continued to walk. Then she looked back and realized that Anthany was lying on the road again.

He was lying still on his back. There wwere no sounds coming from Anthany and he was not moving.

Mr. Dawson was "like dead weight." The officer tried to move him but could not.

She saw a fist formed by the police officer and a swinging motion hit towards Anthany’s face.

She felt sick to her stomach for the aggression that she had seen towards Anthany Dawson.
