Ontario’s Special Investigations Unit (SIU) is investigating after a pedestrian was struck by a police car in Toronto on Sunday, police said.
According to police, a police scout car and a pedestrian were involved in a collision at Earlscourt Park in the area of Davenport Road and Lansdowne Avenue around 2 p.m.
A man in his 20s was taken to a trauma centre with serious injuries, paramedics said.
Police said the incident was not related to a festival in the park that saw nine people being sent to hospital after a counter-demonstration turned violent on Saturday.
The SIU is an independent civilian agency that’s called in to investigate reports involving police where there has been death, serious injury or sexual assault.
