SIU invokes mandate after disturbance at Penetanguishene home

Police were responding to a disturbance when a person was injured while being arrested.

The Special Investigations Unit (SIU) has invoked its mandate after police say a disturbance took place at a Penetanguishene home on Wednesday.

Shortly before 9 p.m., members of the Ontario Provincial Police Southern Georgian Bay Detachment responded to a disturbance at a residence on Main Street.

Police say that as a result of the probe, one person was found and taken into custody at a Wolfe Street residence.

During the arrest, the person sustained an injury that police did not disclose.

With the SIU now investigating, OPP say no further information will be released at this time.

The investigation remains ongoing.
