MISSION — B.C.’s police watchdog has now cleared the RCMP of wrongdoing after completing its probe into a motor vehicle incident in August.

Shortly after 1 p.m. on August 24, an officer pulled a car over for a traffic stop on Hurd Street, near the intersection with Sandpiper Place.

The driver then immediately got involved in a collision with a motorcycle following the traffic stop.

Mission Fire and BCEHS arrived on scene to treat the 60-year-old motorcyclist before taking him to hospital.

The IIO was deployed shortly after.

“The chief civilian director has reviewed the evidence collected by IIO investigators – including witness statements, officer body-worn cameras, and police reports – and determined there was no connection between police action or inaction and the injuries the motorcycle driver sustained in the collision,” wrote the IIO.

A fundraiser has been started to support the motorcyclist’s family, as he may be permanently disabled due to the accident. It has raised $6,690 at the time of writing.
