The province's police watchdog has laid assault charges against two Toronto Police officers.
Special Investigations Unit director Ian Scott announced today that he has "reasonable grounds" to believe the two cops committed a criminal offence during an April confrontation with a 58-year-old man.
Richard Moore, 58, was walking home along Gerrard St. on April 24 at 11 p.m. when he passed two officers while they were dealing with another individual, the SIU stated.
"Words were exchanged between the officers and Mr. Moore and, a short time later, there was a physical altercation," the SIU said in a press release today. "Mr. Moore was taken to St. Michael's Hospital for treatment of injuries."
Const. Edward Ing and Const. John Cruz are both charged with assault causing bodily harm.
They'll be in College Park court on Nov. 16.
