The province’s police watchdog says no charges will be laid after a man was injured while being detained in Opaskwayak Cree Nation this fall.
The man and two male First Nations safety officers slipped on a freshly mopped floor in a licensed hotel, with one of the officers falling on the man, on Oct. 28. The officers were trying to detain the man under The Intoxicated Persons Detention Act, the Independent Investigation Unit of Manitoba said in a report released Thursday.
The incident was recorded on video.
