B-C's independent police watchdog is investigating after a woman was seriously injured in Chilliwack during an altercation with officers.
The Independent Investigations Office says the woman was allegedly impaired and refusing to take a cab at a restaurant on November 22nd, choosing instead to get into her car.
Police say they found the woman in the driver's seat of her vehicle, and she got out then tried to re-enter the car, prompting an escalation that resulted in her being taken into custody.
The woman was then taken to hospital for an unspecified serious injury, and independent investigators are now looking into police conduct in the case
