No Criminal Charges In Saugeen River Death

The Hanover Police Service has concluded its criminal investigation into the drowning death in February of a man from Bowmanville.

It was determined that Brunt died after being trapped under ice in the river.

The Hanover Police Service has concluded that there are no reasonable grounds to charge any person involved with the training course. It was hosted and instructed by a private training firm.

Any decision related to an inquest will come from the Coroner's office.
