Calgary police officers charged with kidnapping, assault during investigation
CALGARY — Three senior members of the Calgary Police Service have been charged with kidnapping and assaulting a man they believed had information in the 2010 case of an at-risk female youth who they thought was being sexually exploited.
A fourth officer involved in the investigation came forward two years ago and accused his colleagues in the vice unit of bringing the man into an unmarked police car, driving him around for about 20 minutes, and assaulting him.
Police say the man never filed a complaint and died a few months later.
The officer who made the allegations has since resigned from the police department.
