The Province’s Special Investigations Unit has ended an investigation into a Hanover police interaction.
SIU Director Joseph Martino says in a release, they were looking into the June 1st arrest of a 19-year-old man in Hanover in front of the Circle K convenience store on 10th street.
The SIU says the arrest was in connection to an assault. A few days later the man contacted police to say the arresting officer had applied the handcuffs too tightly, fracturing his wrist in the process.
The SIU was notified.
They say the man refused to release his medical records or provide a statement to the SIU, and so they’ve ended their investigation.
