Watchdog investigating sex assault allegations involving Waterloo region police
WATERLOO, Ont. — Ontario’s police watchdog says it has launched an investigation into four allegations of sexual assault involving a police force in the province.
Special Investigations Unit spokeswoman Monica Hudon says that since Jan. 1, the agency has started investigating four separate allegations of sexual assault against Waterloo regional police.
The SIU says two of the alleged incidents occurred more than 20 years ago — one in the early 1990s and the other in October 1994.
The two other allegations involve alleged incidents that happened in September 2017 and November 2017.
