Greater Sudbury Police Chief Ian Davidson is launching an investigation into complaints of police brutality.
Ander Reszczyski and Shawn Pelletier complained to Sudbury media about a confrontation with two police officers June 24 at 3 am at the Grotto of Lourdes Shrine in downtown Sudbury.
The pair say they were having a conversation when a police
cruiser pulled up. After being asked to leave the grotto, and
refusing to do so saying the grotto was public property, the pair
allege the police reacted violently.
Reszczyski and Pelletier were in provincial court this week on
charges of trespassing, destruction of property, resisting arrest
and obstructing justice.
