The man accused of killing an Abbotsford police officer appeared briefly in Abbotsford Provincial Court Friday morning.
There was tight security at the courthouse with a handful of sheriffs standing guard outside.
People were only allowed into the building through a single entrance, and all visitors had to pass through a metal detector.
At least two Abbotsford police officers attended the hearing to get a glimpse of Oscar Arfmann, who sat in the prisoner’s box dressed in a baggy red sweatshirt.
