Junior Henry says he was shot with a Taser in his bedroom because police went to the wrong house in Brampton.

“I thought I was dead. I thought when the man shot me, I thought it was actually a bullet,” Henry told CTV News Toronto.

The 46-year-old man rents two floors of a house on Post Road. On Sunday, around dinner time, he says his life was turned upside down.

“I was in bed relaxing because I normally go to work (at) 3:30 on Monday morning. I work at FedEx,” Henry said.

Henry said he had fallen asleep for the night when he was abruptly awakened by the lock being blown off and the sound of police storming his house. He said he could hear them going upstairs to his room and, soon enough, a police officer showed up at his bedroom door.

According to Henry, he was immediately tasered, handcuffed and taken downstairs.

“I was there for two hours in the (handcuffs),” he said. “(It was) so uncomfortable (it’s) like I was shaking. I was standing as I was shaking.

One floor down, another tenant, Don Marshall, said police came down the stairs, breaking a lock that separated the two apartments in the same house. Then, Marshall said police kicked in his bedroom door, prompting him to put his hands up.

“With my hands in the air, he came in here and knocked me to the ground, and I didn’t want to (get shot),” Marshall said.

According to the tenants, no fewer than eight police officers entered their home. It took investigators two hours to realize they had the wrong house, they said.

“No one apologized,” Henry said.

In a statement to CTV News Toronto, the Halton Regional Police Service said it was conducting an investigation “which required urgent and simultaneous police entry into two homes” on Post Road “to ensure the preservation of life.” .

Halton police say Peel Regional Police helped enter one of the homes while their officers entered the other home.

Halton police declined to provide documents confirming they had a search warrant for the specific address, citing the “ongoing” investigation.

“Although no charges have been laid at this stage, the operation on Sunday evening was successful. Due to the sensitive nature of this ongoing investigation, no further details will be provided at this time,” the statement said.

Peel Regional Police, meanwhile, released a separate statement to CTV News Toronto confirming that officers arrested five people at the time who were “connected” to the investigation. He said two of those individuals were Tasered “because of the immediate need to be apprehended.”

No criminal charges have been filed at this time.
