Director Scott has caused a charge to be laid against the officer.
The DRPS contacted the SIU on June 30, 2011 and reported that an officer responding to a call had collided with a motorcycle on Taunton Road in Oshawa. As a result of the collision the motorcyclist sustained multiple fractures on his left side.
As a result of the SIU investigation, Constable Bradley Browne is facing one charge of Dangerous driving causing bodily harm, contrary to s. 249(3) of the Criminal Code of Canada.
