A trial began Thursday for two people accused in the death of a provincial police officer in 2022, with the Crown saying witnesses will testify that one of the accused fatally shot the officer before both suspects fled in a stolen vehicle, prompting a police hunt.

Ontario Provincial Police Const. Grzegorz Pierzchala was shot on Dec. 27, 2022 while responding to a vehicle in a ditch west of Hagersville, Ont., near Brantford.

Police said at the time that Pierzchala was killed the same day he learned he had passed his 10-month probation period with the OPP.

Randall McKenzie and Brandi Stewart-Sperry were each charged with first-degree murder in the 28-year-old officer’s death. Both of the accused have pleaded not guilty.

In the jury trial taking place in Cayuga, Ont., a community near Hagersville, the Crown is looking to prove that McKenzie was the shooter, and that Stewart-Sperry intentionally helped him.
