Inquest begins into fatal police shooting of Warren Matthew Simon in Newcastle

ABC  

Vision of a fatal police shooting in Newcastle has been played in court on the first day of a coronial inquest. Deputy State Coroner Kasey Pearce warned the court seeing the vision may be difficult to watch, particularly for Mr Simon's family and the officers involved. After police told Mr Simon he was being arrested in relation to an alleged theft, he told the officers he understood and said he needed to collect his belongings from the home. The counsel assisting the coroner Tracey Stephens told the inquest that Mr Simon started using drugs in his teens and spent a considerable amount of time in and out of custody.
