B.C. police watchdog investigates Vancouver officers' use of force in arrest of man

BY , Dec 17, 2020 10:31 PM - REPORT AN ERROR

BC's police complaints commissioner says it will launch a disciplinary-conduct investigation into the actions of seven Vancouver officers who took part in the arrest of a Sechelt man in August 2015.

The BC Prosecution Service has said the injuries suffered by 33 year old Myles Gray during his arrest included a broken eye socket, a possible partially dislocated jaw and a voice box fracture.

Gray died after going into cardiac arrest while he was being restrained.

The prosecution service said none of the officers involved would be charged because the accusations couldn't be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

Complaints Commissioner Clayton Pecknold says that decision allows his office to examine the officers' actions and isn't restricted to evidence gathered during the criminal investigation.
