BURNABY, B.C. — Outside a busy Starbucks in Metro Vancouver, a
black-and-white photograph of a young man in a suit and tie sits
nestled among flowers, handwritten cards and a bright red ribbon that
reads, “Michael.”

He has been identified in media reports as Michael Page-Vincelli, a
22-year-old who reportedly died after a shocking altercation inside
the coffee shop that a witness says left him unconscious and bleeding
on the floor.

The tragedy happened a month ago but the public only heard about it
for the first time from the media this week. Police did not issue any
statements and no charges have been laid.

A civil rights group is raising questions about why police kept the
man’s death under wraps. And while media reports have portrayed the
encounter as having broken out over a tossed cigarette butt, a witness
who explained what he saw adds more details to the story.

“Michael, I love you,” reads a note signed “Mom,” placed on the
makeshift memorial outside the store.

“I’m going to miss you. Wish you could stay. My boy. My sunshine. Love
you always and forever.”

The incident took place on July 12 inside a Starbucks in Burnaby.
Michael Zimeras, 73, was sitting outside when he saw a young man
emerge from the coffee shop. The man lit a cigarette and began to pace
back and forth, yanking his T-shirt up and down, mumbling and cursing
about the government and not being allowed to smoke inside, said
Zimeras.

“He was looking very agitated,” he said.

Some time later, the young man approached a woman who was sitting in a
parked car outside a nearby bank, said Zimeras, and began yelling that
he didn’t want to see her anymore. She tossed a cigarette onto the
ground and the young man picked it up and threw it at her through an
open window, Zimeras said.

The young man left and went back to the Starbucks, and another man
emerged from the bank, said Zimeras. He said the woman told the man
what had happened and the man said, “Let’s go and get him.”

The man went into the Starbucks while the woman stood outside holding
the door, said Zimeras. After about a minute, the man emerged and they
drove away.

Zimeras rushed inside the coffee shop and saw the young man crumpled
and unconscious on the floor, with blood pouring from his mouth, nose
and ears. Zimeras said he heard from a customer that the man had
punched him in the face and he had hit his head on a counter.

“I knew him, when I saw him down on the ground that he was dead, the
way he was trying to breathe,” said Zimeras. “I said, ‘He won’t make
it. He’s dead.’ ”

The Canadian Press has not spoken to anyone who witnessed the alleged
punch.

Steve Myers was sitting inside the Starbucks when he heard a loud
bang. He thought someone had jumped over a table and knocked over a
chair, but when he looked up, he saw a man laying on the floor. An
employee called 911 while people tried to do CPR, he said.

Myers said other customers told him that a man had walked in, punched
the young man from behind and he hit his head on a counter.

A note hanging on the door of the family home of Page-Vincelli asks
for privacy, and a woman who answered the phone declined comment. An
obituary describes the “extreme sorrow” felt by his family, and thanks
the nurses and staff at a hospital for their “loving care.”

Police have released few details about their investigation and refused
to confirm details of the case reported by media outlets based on
interviews with witnesses.

Cpl. Meghan Foster of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team said
there was an altercation on July 12 at a business on the 6500 block of
Hastings Street in Burnaby, the same block where the Starbucks is
located.

Foster said a man was transported to hospital, where he died a few
days later. Officers don’t believe there is any risk to the public,
she said.

“We’re advancing the investigation and pursuing leads diligently … and
no names will be released until charge approval will be obtained,” she
said. “Right now we’re in a position where we can’t say anything more
than that.”

Josh Paterson, executive director of the B.C. Civil Liberties
Association, said there may have been legitimate investigative reasons
why the police did not tell the public about the incident. But they
should be more clear and transparent about what their standards are
for proactively releasing information, he said.

“As the public and the media, we’re unable to form a judgment about
how effective our police are being if we don’t know, in general, about
the kinds of crimes they’re investigating,” he said.

Starbucks Canada issued a statement that says it is supporting the
RCMP in their investigation.

“We were shocked and saddened by this assault, and our thoughts are
with his family,” the statement said.

(Greg-There must be video footage of the punch from the coffee shop
security cameras. There must be sketch art dipections of the man who
threw the Deadly punch. Why haven`t these been released to the public?
The only reason the media recieved the story is because a local saw
the mémorial and contacted them. At the least this is manslaughter.)

this family had their son murdered by an assault rifle and then their
restaurant was torched. A man confessed but that was thrown out by the
BC Supreme Court because of a technacality (The technacality being the
RCMP officer questioned him 47 times after the accussed asked for a
lawyer. Is that police incompetence or corruption they are taught
basic law at their training depots.)

Derek Corrigan the NDP Mayor of Burnaby attented a Hell's Angel
funeral in Burnaby as reported by the Province newspaer. Pietro
Calidino had a nephew who was a full patch HAMCer and rented election
office space from a HA associatte all reported in local media. Pietro
is a former NDP MLA and currently a Burnaby alderman.

Michael Page-Vincel has been dead since July 12 2017. No suspects
named and no video surveillance released or skecth artists renditions
of the attacker and his female egger on. Burnaby RCMP protected their
Crimestoppers informant Glenn Victor Gilbert who ratted out the
boyfriend of his girlfriends daughter the bass player from Sask.
Gilbert then threatened to shoot me in fron tof two RCMP officers at
the courthouse on Deer Lake and the corrupt officers did nothing. Was
the killer of Michael also an informant for Burnaby RCMP?
