Montreal officer suspended for

The Police Ethics Commission has a suspended a Montreal police officer for five days without pay for an "inadequate and incomplete" investigation into a collision involving an SQ cruiser in 2004.

Martin Couture will appeal the suspension.

The ethics commission had criticized Couture's investigation into the Nov. 27, 2004 collision at the corner of Ferrier and Decarie in Cote-des-Neiges.

The cruiser, driven by SQ officer Stephane Sasseville, collided with a civilian's car, seriously injuring passenger Sharon Rozen-Aspler.

The impact was so violent that the jaws of life were needed to extract Rozen-Aspler from the car.

Montreal police quickly closed the case, ruling it an accident, but Rozen-Aspler filed an official complaint.

She said the Montreal officer never asked about the speed Sasseville was going and didn't assess the extent of the damage to the vehicles.

The commission agreed, ruling that Couture did not properly reconstruct the accident scene and that the SQ officer was not driving carefully.
