London police officer cleared by SIU

They were called in after a teen, fleeing police, was bit by a service dog.

The Special Investigations Unit has cleared a London Police officer in a case where a teen was injured by a police dog. 

In April, police say the 17-year-old ran from a traffic stop and hid in a backyard.

A police service dog found the teen, biting him behind the knee and causing a serious injury. 

The SIU says there’s no evidence the officer committed a criminal offence.
