Manitoba Crime Stoppers has released a one-minute video re-enactment of the unsolved murder on Oct. 26, 2007 of Bernie Carlson in an early morning break-and-enter into his Yale Avenue house, narrated by Sgt. Tom Cooney, provincial co-ordinator for RCMP "D" Division Manitoba Crime Stoppers in Winnipeg.
Carlson, also know affectionately as "Boom-boom" and "Bowanna" to friends and family, was shot while investigating an intruder after being awakened by a dog barking just before 1 a.m.
Cpl. Sean Grunewald, an investigator with the Thompson RCMP's major crime unit, called the taped emergency call from Bernie's wife, Elva, hiding in the bedroom from the intruder, the most chilling taped emergency call for help he's ever listened to. He also has described the case as "baffling."
Rick Kizuk of Kizuk Productions Ltd. in Winnipeg produced the video re-enactment for Manitoba Crime Stoppers.
