The Special Investigations Unit has invoked its mandate and is investigating after a man was injured while being arrested over the weekend.

The SIU automatically investigates any time a suspect is injured during an arrest.

The man sustained his injuries on June 16th. Police say the suspect was fleeing following a traffic stop on Sanders Street.

A police dog assisted officers in their chase. A short time later he was located and arrested.

It was determined he was injured and was taken to hospital for treatment.

No officers were injured during the incident.
