Independent Investigations Office has cleared officers of any wrongdoing in the death of a UBC student

BY , Feb 20, 2020 10:30 PM - REPORT AN ERROR

The Independent Investigations Office has cleared officers in the RCMP's University of B.C. detachment of any wrongdoing in the death of a UBC student two weeks ago.

The student had been arrested early in the morning on February 5th and was briefly held at the UBC detachment but was released about 2:30 a.m. and taken back to his residence on campus.

Just hours later a security guard found the unnamed student dead under the Lions Gate Bridge.

The office, which examines all incidents of police involved death or serious injury in B.C., says the student's death was not the result of RCMP action or inaction, and the investigation has concluded.
