The province’s Special Investigations Unit has ruled there was no police culpability in a February incident that saw an Ottawa woman jump from a rooftop and fracture her ankle.

According to police, officers were called to a restaurant on Somerset Street West on Feb. 21 at around 7:45 am.

When they arrived they found a woman on the roof.

Police officers climbed onto the roof to engage with the woman, but she ran and attempted to leap to a lower roof below. Firefighters on the scene, who also responded to the call, removed the woman from the lower rooftop.

She was taken to hospital and diagnosed with a fractured left ankle.

“The evidence establishes that no police officer caused or contributed to the woman’s injury,” SIU director Tony Loparco wrote in a news release.

The SIU is an arm’s length agency that investigates reports involving police where there has been death, serious injury or allegations of sexual assault.
