An Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) inspector has filed a lawsuit seeking over $6.3 million in damages against the Brantford Police Service, the OPP, and the RCMP, in relation to her arrest in 2020 for selling a hockey stick owned by “the Great One,” Wayne Gretzky.

OPP Inspector June Dobson of Brockville, Ontario, is described in the statement of claim filed by her lawyers on her behalf as “a longtime close friend of the late Walter Gretzky,” father of Wayne, the famous hockey great who played for the Edmonton Oilers, Los Angeles Kings, and others.
