By The Canadian Press

The Special Investigations Unit (SIU) is investigating a collision in London, Ont., between a police cruiser and a woman in a wheelchair.

The SIU says at about 6 p.m. on Monday, an officer was turning right from Adelaide St. North onto Dundas St., when the cruiser struck a wheelchair being operated by a 59-year-old woman.

The provincial agency says the woman was taken to Victoria Hospital to be treated for an arm injury.

Two investigators, two forensic investigators and one collision reconstructionist have been assigned to investigate the incident.

The SIU is urging anyone who may have information about this incident, or video evidence, to contact the agency.

The SIU investigates all incidents between police and the public which result in death, serious injury or allegations of sexual assault.
