A man was shot and seriously injured during an interaction with the Saanich Police on Patricia Bay Highway (Highway 17) Friday night, the Independent Investigations Office (IIO) says.
At approximately 9 p.m., Saanich Police officers conducted a traffic stop with a driver in the 4100 block of the highway for an investigation into the breach of a conditional sentence order.
The IIO, the province’s civilian-led police oversight agency, is now investigating the incident “to confirm the details of what occurred during the traffic stop and to determine what role, if any, police actions or inactions played in the man’s injuries,” they write in a release. At 10 p.m. Friday, the Saanich Police Department released a statement notifying the public that the highway was closed.
They also wrote that during the incident, officers told drivers in the surrounding area to seek shelter until it was deemed safe for them to leave.
