The Special Investigations Unit has ended its probe into an incident in Midland.
The SIU says that on October 11, 2019, a 37 year old man was involved in a crash in the area of Whitfield Crescent and William Street.
He fled the area on foot but was soon found by police.
After a struggle with officers, the suspect was arrested.
On February 13, 2020, the man launched a complaint and the SIU started an investigation.
The Director has released a statement saying that the SIU had attempted in vain to get a statement from the man, and that there is an insufficient foundation to go ahead with a full investigation.
The Special Investigations Unit says without the man’s cooperation, they can’t even access his medical records to confirm is he suffered an injury during the arrest.
The file is now closed.
