Witnesses sought as IIO probes August 2015 death involving Vancouver police
VANCOUVER — The independent civilian body that investigates police-involved deaths or serious injuries in British Columbia is searching for witnesses to a fatal confrontation in Burnaby nearly one year ago.
Members of the Independent Investigations Office are probing the Aug. 13, 2015 death of 33-year-old Sechelt resident Myles Gray.
He died as Vancouver police responded to reports of a man causing a disturbance near the boundary between Vancouver and Burnaby.
Gray died and six officers were injured during a violent scuffle as police tried to make an arrest.
