Nova Scotia’s police watchdog has concluded its investigation into an RCMP officer from Lunenburg regarding an incident in May that involved a man in distress.
The Lunenburg District RCMP responded to the situation and discharged a taser to subdue the man before arresting him.
Following a review, the Serious Incident Response Team (SiRT) determined that the injuries sustained by the individual were self-inflicted and not the result of any actions taken by the police officer.
As a result of these findings, SiRT has decided to terminate the investigation.
