SiRT terminates investigation into man's arrest, injury in Moncton
The Serious Incident Response Team (SiRT) has terminated an investigation after a man was injured during his arrest at the Lion's Club in Moncton, N.B.
The man complained of wrist pain after members of the Codiac RCMP arrested him after being called to disturbance at the club on June 3, said a news release.
The man went to the hospital where he was released the next day. Police received information that his right hand was fractured, but after investigating and reviewing medical records, they determined the injury wasn't serious.
The director determined the incident did not meet the SiRT mandate. The investigation was terminated and the file closed, said the release.
SiRT is responsible for investigating all matters that involve death, serious injury, sexual assault, intimate partner violence or other matters of public interest that result from the actions of any police officer, on or off duty, in Nova Scotia or New Brunswick.

One member of the group appeared on a podcast in June 2023 and spoke about the importance of being armed and not trusting the government.
