A coroner’s inquest into the death of a man during a Montreal police intervention five years ago is underway without members of Koray Kevin Celik’s family taking part.

Celik, 28, was intoxicated and his parents wanted to prevent him from getting behind the wheel when they called 911 seeking help just after 2 a.m. on March 6, 2017, in the western Montreal neighbourhood of Île-Bizard.
