On February 26, 1947, Vancouver police officers Charles Boyes and Oliver Ledingham were murdered in a shootout at False Creek Flats. Inspector Vance was called in to handle the ballistics and ultimately determine whether a 17- year-old would live or die.

This podcast is based on original research from a chapter in my book Blood, Sweat, and Fear: The Story of Inspector Vance.

Between 1912 and 1987, 16 Vancouver police officers have been killed in the line of duty.
