BC man says he came out of the shower naked to find 2 RCMP officers had unlawfully entered his home

A Coquitlam, B.C., father of two has filed a lawsuit following an incident in June 2022, when two RCMP officers allegedly entered his home unlawfully to serve him with a traffic violation ticket.

Kirk Forbes told Global News, “As I come out open the door, wow right there I am, face to face with a dark figure in my house and I’m standing here naked.”

He said he had just gotten out of the shower, and “instincts took over immediately.”

“I was just about to tackle, and as I did that, I saw the RCMP uniform.”

Forbes said the two Coquitlam RCMP officers told him they were serving him with a traffic violation ticket from 2021, which happened in Pemberton. Global News reporter Catherine Urquhart explains what happened next.
