Constable Pinizzotto was doing what police officers do every day, and these tragedies remind us of the danger that they face.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9416233\" data-originallang=\"en\"> As Constable Pinizzotto's family and colleagues across the service carry an unimaginable loss, we honour the memory of a hero in life, a police officer who dedicated nearly two decades in service to his community. I extend my deepest condolences to the Pinizzotto family, the Toronto Police Service and all members of the policing community. May his loved ones find strength in one another in the difficult days ahead, and may we honour him as a hero in service to others.</p>",
