THUNDER BAY - The crown and police are reviewing a pathology report into the death of Barbara Kentner to determine if additional charges will be added against Brayden Bushby.

The matter was heard in a Thunder Bay superior courtroom on Monday. Rob Kozak, representing the crown, said the crown and investigators with Thunder Bay police still need time to review the pathology report and requested an additional two weeks. 

Attorney Ryan Green told the court that the beginning of the pathology report that he received was redacted and asked for that information to be disclosed. 

On the evening of Jan. 29, 2017, Kentner was struck by a trailer hitch thrown from a moving vehicle while walking on Cameron Street near MacKenzie Avenue with her sister. 

Bushby, 18, was arrested and charged with aggravated assault. 

Kentner died in hospital on Jul. 4, 2017.  She was 34 years old. 

The matter will be heard again in court on Oct. 10, 2017.
