No officers will be charged after a man sustained nose injuries during the G20 summit, the provincial police watchdog has concluded after its second look at the case.

Joseph Thomson was arrested on June 26, 2010, and suffered a fractured nose. He had allegedly interfered with the arrest of a friend near Queen St. W. and Spadina Ave.

Thomson alleges an officer struck him in the face. His injuries were treated in hospital.

His case alleging police brutality was closed last November when Special Investigations Unit director Ian Scott said there wasn’t a “sufficiently reliable basis to conclude that the subject officer used excessive force.” It was reopened in January after new video and images of the incident surfaced.

Thirty-one additional people were interviewed in the reopened investigation, including 22 RCMP officers and a civilian witness present at the time of Thomson’s arrest, the SIU said in a statement on Monday.

Scott concluded the arresting officers had lawful authority to arrest and use reasonable force against Thomson. He also rejected Thomson’s complaint that police had used excessive force on him.

“None of the photographs, videos or statements from the officers or civilian witnesses from either the original investigation or the reopened one support this allegation,” Scott said.

The SIU probes allegations of sexual assault, serious injury or death involving police. Since the summit, the SIU has charged two police officers with criminal offences.

Const. Babak Andalib-Goortani faces two counts of assault with a weapon and Const. Glenn Weddell faces a charge for allegedly causing bodily harm.
