The Ontario Special Investigations Unit has ruled there are no reasonable grounds to charge an Ontario Provincial Police officer after an arrest in Kingsville in April.
The officer watched as a prohibited driver drove into a parking lot and decided to arrest him.
During the arrest, the man broke free, and a struggle ensued.
More officers arrived on scene to help make the arrest, and the suspect was taken to the hospital, where he was diagnosed with a severely fractured ankle.
SIU Director Joseph Martino stated that there was no evidence to suggest the officer had committed a criminal offence.
The SIU is called in whenever police are involved in an interaction with the public that results in injury, sexual assault, or death.
