Redacted summary

The material events are clear on the evidence collected by the SIU and may briefly be summarized. In the early morning of late December 2025, Brantford Police Service (BPS) officers were called to a residence in the area of Colborne Street East and Clarence Street South in Brantford. A resident of the building had called police to report a disturbance coming from another unit. Two witness officers attended at the scene and knocked at the door. The disturbance involved the complainant and a civilian witness. The complainant was subject to a no-contact order at the time preventing contact and communication with the civilian witness. Realizing police were outside the door and that they would be arrested for breaching the order, the complainant attempted to escape apprehension. They climbed through a window of their second floor unit onto the roof of an adjoining structure, ran across the roof to an exterior staircase, and started to descend. Two subject officers had also responded to the disturbance call and were outside as the witness officers entered. They observed the complainant running on the roof and were waiting at the bottom of the staircase. When the complainant jumped over the staircase railing at the midway landing and collapsed on the ground below, the officers approached to take them into custody. The complainant complained of pain to their right foot and was transported to hospital, where they were diagnosed with a broken right ankle.
