SIU Director Joseph Martino concluded there are “no reasonable grounds to believe that any of the subject officials committed a criminal offence in connection with the complainant’s arrest and injury.”
, when a 16-year-old boy broke his left wrist around the time of his arrest by the officers, who were searching for a suspect that had confronted police with a machete.
One of the responding officers, in plainclothes at the time, engaged with one of the boys, but the SIU said the officer was confronted with “a sword.” After a “short struggle,” the SIU said the 16-year-old boy was handcuffed and brought to the police cruiser, where he was pushed forward by one of the arresting officers against the vehicle.
Under the Criminal Code, Martino noted officers are “immune from the criminal liability for force used in the course of their duties provided such force was reasonably necessary in the execution of an action that they were required or authorized to do by law.”
