  • Mounties in Kelowna notify IIO after police dog injures man on run

Mounties in Kelowna say they've notified B-C's police watchdog after a police dog injured a man who was running away from officers pursuing him. 

R-C-M-P say officers pulled over an stolen vehicle with four people inside. 

They say the occupants ran away when officers told them they were under arrest, including one man who was holding what was believed to be a weapon. 

A police dog gave chase and made contact with the man, who was taken to hospital for treatment of his undisclosed injuries.
