An OPP officer was cleared of any wrongdoing by the province's police watchdog in the drowning death of an Ottawa-area man last August.

A man was pronounced deceased following a crash on County Road 18 on Saturday night.

The Special Investigations Unit says the man was pronounced dead in hospital on Tuesday and an autopsy was conducted in London on Friday.

The Special Investigations Unit says Acting Sgt. David Swaine of the Durham Regional Police has been charged with failing to provide the necessaries of life.

The province's police watchdog was called in after the arrested man was diagnosed with a fractured left orbital bone and broken nose.

Investigators said they have since found human remains and said DNA testing is currently underway.

The SIU says a man was injured while resisting arrest as part of a theft investigation by Peterborough County OPP in May 2020.

Two Belleville police officers have been charged by the SIU with assault causing bodily harm.

Emergency crews were called to an apartment building on George Street near Dundas Street at around 3:30 a.m. Tuesday.

Police say officers were called to the area of Greenway Park off of Greenside Drive at around 10:30 a.m. Monday over concerns about a man believed to be in possession of a handgun.
