IIU is looking into serious injuries sustained by suspect during an arrest in Shamattawa First Nation

The Independent Investigation Unit is asking witnesses or people with video footage to come forward after a man suffered a hip injury during arrest in Shamattawa First Nation.

 

Last Thursday at approximately 9 p.m, RCMP received a service call in the First Nation.

 

Upon arrival, officers located the 18-year-old suspect who tried to run away on foot.

 

As he was fleeing, the suspect slipped and was taken to the ground by one of the officers.

 

The man told police afterwards that he was injured, and was taken to the nursing station where he was diagnosed with a dislocated hip.

 

He was then taken to Thompson General Hospital for treatment.

 

Anyone with information is asked to call the IIU at 1-844-667-6060.
