The Special Investigations Unit has been called in by Oxford OPP after a single vehicle incident.

INGERSOLL - The Special Investigations Unit (SIU) has invoked its mandate after a single vehicle collision in Ingersoll.

On Sunday, May 4, 2025, Just after 3 A.M.  The Oxford OPP attempted to pull over a vehicle going west on Highway 401.

The driver of the Vehicle did not stop for the police and fled the scene. A short time later, police received a report of a single vehicle collision on Canterbury Street.

Oxford Fire Services of Ingersoll and Oxford Paramedic Services were on the scene to assist. The driver was removed from the vehicle and taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Due to the incident resulting in injuries to the driver the OPP notified the SIU. 

The mandate of the SIU is to nurture confidence in Ontario’s police services and select special constables and peace officers by assuring the public that the actions of these officials resulting in serious injury, death, the discharge of a firearm at a person or an allegation of sexual assault are subjected to rigorous, independent investigations.

The objective of every SIU investigation is to determine whether there is evidence of criminal wrongdoing on the part of the official(s). It is not to determine whether the involved official(s) may have committed some lesser offence, such as a breach of a provincial law or professional misconduct.

Due to the SIU being involved the OPP cannot provide any further information and inquiries should be directed to: siu.inquiries@ontario.ca.
