Quebec provincial police officer arrested for alleged intimidation

MONTREAL – A Quebec provincial police officer has been suspended with pay after being arrested by Montreal police for alleged intimidation and assault.

Beaconsfield issued a statement after being informed of the arrests and said the accused targeted city personnel.

Montreal police Lt. Ian Lafreniere confirmed the four people were released after they promised to appear in court at a later date.<
