A 17-year veteran of the Regina Police Service (RPS) has been found not guilty of assault.
Const. Roger Wiebe, 50, was charged in July in connection with an incident that occurred April 21. The verdict of not guilty was delivered in Regina Provincial Court on Tuesday.
The RPS received a complaint April 21 alleging excessive use of force by an officer against a member of the public earlier that day.
In a media release in July, police said the incident occurred on North Railway Street during an investigation into a person needing assistance.
It was alleged a woman was assaulted by an officer who was responding to the incident. The woman was not arrested or detained during the incident.
In July, Chief Evan Bray said the incident was brought to the RPS’s attention internally.
“This was actually brought up to us by another member of our police service with concern about this interaction and from that concern, we did some investigation where we learned some details about the call,” Bray said. “We were able to discover some video we had from our own video source, our in-car camera.”
The investigation was led by the Public Complaints Commission and Crown prosecutors, who recommended charges be laid.
