Ontario's independent police oversight agency says there are no grounds for criminal charges against an Ottawa Police Service officer involved in a March 30 arrest that resulted in a fractured thumb for a 14-year-old youth. According to a narrative contained in the SIU report, the March 30 incident began at 12:25 p.m., when OPS officers in the ByWard Market saw the teen, who was wanted for criminal offences committed weeks before, including robbery.
