As of Monday at noon, the province’s civilian-led police watchdog, the Independent Investigations Office (IIO) of British Columbia, said it had not launched an investigation into the incident.
The IIO investigates all police-related incidents that, through direct action or police inaction, result in death or serious harm, to determine whether an officer has committed an offence.
