Ontario Provincial Police’s criminal investigations branch has confirmed it’s conducting “a thorough and independent investigation” into allegations of criminal misconduct against some members of the Thunder Bay Police Service (TBPS).
OPP spokesperson Bill Dickson said Tuesday the investigation has started, after the attorney general referred an investigation request to the provincial force in December.
The spokesperson said they could not comment on specific details of the case or the investigation, or speculate on how long the investigation would take or the possible outcome, “to protect the integrity of the investigation and any ensuing court processes.”
