An altercation between the OPP and a man was investigated by the SIU, but it is now closed.
EMBRO - The SIU were called to Embro to investigate an interaction between OPP and a man.
A 53-year-old man was having a diabetic episode on August 9th, and officers were called to assist, as the man was refusing medical assistance. Police had to use physical force to take the man into custody under the Mental Health Act. The man was taken to hospital and only treated for the diabetic episode.
The SIU says that, with no indication of any ‘serious injury’ within the statutory mandate of the SIU, the unit was without jurisdiction to investigate the incident.
The file has been closed.
