Ontario’s police watchdog charges Peel officer with assault in connection with suspect’s arrest

Officials with Ontario’s police watchdog say a Peel Regional Police officer is facing two assault-related charges in connection with the arrest of a 22-year-old man in Mississauga in May.

According to a statement issued by the Special Investigations Unit (SIU) Wednesday morning, the charges stem from an incident on May 5.

At around 5 p.m. on that day, the statement said officers received a 911 call about a driver who was parked on Duval Drive, near Creditview Road and Britannia Road West. It was reported the driver was suspected of being impaired.
