A senior Mountie testified today that he would have liked to have seen a quicker warning to the public in 2020 that an active shooter in Nova Scotia was driving a replica RCMP cruiser.

Chief Supt. Darren Campbell made the comment during testimony before a public inquiry looking into the events of April 18-19, 2020, when a 51-year-old gunman drove the mock patrol car around the province, murdering 22 people.
