Special Investigations Unit (Ontario) · SIU case 25-PCI-503
Redacted summary
The evidence collected by the SIU, including interviews with the affected person and a police eyewitness, gives rise to the following scenario. As was their legal right, the subject officer did not agree to an interview with the SIU. They did authorize the release of their notes. In the afternoon of late 2025, the subject officer, operating a police cruiser with another officer as their passenger, stopped a vehicle in Haldimand County. The affected person was driving the vehicle. Police officers had been on the lookout for the affected person after they expressed suicidal ideations when they came to learn, earlier that day, that they were the subject of a sexual assault investigation. As the officers exited the cruiser to make their way to the vehicle, the affected person accessed a knife and used it to inflict a serious laceration across the left side of their neck. The subject officer and the other officer observed the wound, contacted paramedics, and attempted to apply first aid. When the affected person tried to prevent the officers from helping them, they were handcuffed to allow the officers to provide emergency care. The affected person was transported to hospital and treated for a serious neck wound.
