A police sniper was deployed at a peaceful St. Patrick’s Day event in Waterloo, sparking outrage over disproportionate force.
Waterloo Mayor Dorothy McCabe expressed shock that a police sniper was deployed during an unsanctioned St. Patrick’s Day street party in the university district, stating she was unaware of any threats justifying such a response.
Police confirmed the authenticity of online footage showing a sniper monitoring the crowd but did not explain the rationale.
McCabe, who has requested a meeting with Police Chief Mark Crowell, noted the event has occurred annually for over 15 years and typically involves large crowds of youth without prior incidents of violence.
The deployment has sparked public debate over the proportionality of police tactics at non-violent gatherings.
