Ontario’s Special Investigations Unit (SIU) has launched an investigation following the death of a 44-year-old man while in custody at the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) detachment in Orillia. The man was one of three individuals arrested and processed at the facility, where they were searched and placed into cells.
The following morning, the man was discovered without vital signs. The SIU has invoked its mandate to examine the circumstances surrounding the death, as is standard procedure when an individual dies while in the custody of law enforcement.
