An investigation has been launched into the way police acted at a Vancouver anti-pipeline protest, according to the Office of the Police Complaint Commissioner.
In a Thursday news release, the office said it would be reviewing how a 74-year-old woman was knocked to the ground by a police officer.
The video, which appeared in local media, shows a woman approaching a uniformed Vancouver police officer.
“The woman in the video steps forward and appears to make contact with one of the men, the woman is pushed back and falls to the ground,” the release read.
