Almost nine years after a UBC student was beaten by Metro Vancouver Transit Police in a violent assault captured on video, Police Act proceedings for one of the two officers involved are still ongoing.

On Tuesday, the victim, a former UBC football player whose name is covered by a publication ban, laid out his recollection of the night in question.

Video released in 2016 shows Diaz Rodriguez delivering 10 baton strikes to the victim’s head, neck and back – all over alleged fare evasion at the Rupert SkyTrain station.
