KAMLOOPS — The Independent Investigations Office (IIO) says it will cease its investigation into an incident involving Kamloops RCMP last month.
The incident took place October 14 at a residential building in the 1800-block of Greenfield Avenue in Brocklehurst.
Mounties responding to a request for help with an elderly woman’s behaviour said the woman answered the door holding a weapon. When an officer took the weapon from her, she was injured.
The IIO investigates when people are killed or seriously injured in encounters with police.
