The investigation stems from an early-morning Dec. 8, 2018, collision between an unmarked police car and a stolen pickup truck.
At the time, police told IIO investigators the truck had previously failed to stop.
The truck’s driver was injured during the arrest. It will be up to Crown prosecutors to decide whether any charges will be laid.
