SIU clears 2 officers after suspects receive orbital bone fractures
The logo of the Ontario Special Investigations Unit is pictured in Toronto on Friday, April 12, 2024. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Arlyn McAdorey Two people were sitting in a stolen Jeep SUV in April when they were confronted by unmarked police vehicles in the driveway of a rural property in Schomberg. Members of the York Regional Police Auto Cargo Theft Unit blocked the front and rear of the Jeep so it couldn't drive away. The two people jumped out of the jeep and ran. One police man caught up to the driver and tackled the 34-year-ol man to the ground. Following a struggle, the man was arrested and taken to hospital where he was diagnosed with a fractured left orbital bone. SIU director Joseph Martino determined there were no reasonable grounds to find the officer committed a criminal offence in connection with the man's arrest and injury. In March, a Barrie woman called police to report the man she was residing with a man who had both cocaine and a gun. Tactical Support Unit officers approached the front door and used a battering ram to force it open. A distraction device was deployed and officers entered through the doorway into the foyer. The man, who was asleep at the time, awoke to the sounds of police entering his home. At the direction of the officers, the man left his bedroom with his hands up and began to walk down the stairs. When he reached into pocket of his hooded sweatshirt, officers feared he was reaching for a firearm. They grabbed the man by the right arm and pulled him down. In the process of falling forward, the man suffered a fractured orbital bone when his face struck the barrel of an officer's C8 rifle. On his assessment of the evidence, SIU Director Joseph Martino determined there were no reasonable grounds to believe that an officer committed a criminal offence in connection with the 27-year-old man's arrest and injury.

Bronze headstone thefts 'unbelievably disrespectful', OPP investigators say
Police in Norfolk County are asking the public to report any suspicious activity in cemeteries as headstones have become the target of recent thefts. Earlier this week, Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officers were investigating reports of a stolen bronze headstone at Bayview Cemetery near Port Rowan, Constable Andrew Gamble said. "It's so unfortunate that this type of act has occurred and that there is a person, or people, out there who would do something that is so unbelievably disrespectful," he said in an online update. Another headstone was also stolen from Sacred Heart Cemetery in nearby Langton, he said. Like the one in Port Rowan, it was also made of bronze. If any suspicious activity is seen in or around cemeteries in the area, contact the Norfolk County OPP or Crime Stoppers, Gamble said.

Man charged with arson, fined $150K for allegedly setting brush fires in St. John's
A 20-year-old man has been fined $150,000 and charged with arson with disregard of human life following a string of brush fires in downtown St. John's on Tuesday night. The man will appear in court on Thursday. Police and firefighters responded to at least four fires in the span of a few blocks on Lemarchant Road and New Gower Street between 10:30 p.m. and 12:30 a.m. NT. There were no injuries reported or damage to buildings. "The investigation is ongoing in consultation with resource enforcement officers of the Department of Fisheries, Forestry, and Agriculture," reads a media release from the RNC. Speaking at a news conference on Thursday morning, Premier John Hogan said the man was slapped with three $50,000 fines. He could have faced even tougher punishment, as the province recently jacked up the penalties for starting fires during the provincewide fire ban to a range of $50,000 to $150,000.
