  • 4 Mounties injured over the weekend

Burnaby R-C-M-P say four Mounties sustained minor injuries as they responded to a report of a man trying to break into a home over the weekend.

They say officers arrived to find the 36-year-old suspect yelling incoherently, and when they tried to arrest him, he became aggressive.

Police say officers ultimately used a Taser to take the man into custody.

They say two of the four officers injured during the arrest were treated in hospital and released the same night.
