MOUNTIE CHARGED WITH ASSAULT AFTER LILLOOET HOME RAIDED

A Lillooet Mountie has been charged with four counts of assault with a
weapon.

Police received a complaint against Const. Daniel St. Amand on March 1
after an earlier incident in Lillooet.

It is alleged a police officer used excessive force by Tasering a
19-year-old woman in her back as she lay on the ground face down
during a drug raid Feb. 5.

The woman's dog was also allegedly Tasered during the
raid.

Police said they found trace amounts of cocaine on a scale, plus four
ecstasy pills in a coat and a bag of marijuana in the woman's home.

After the woman filed a complaint, the detachment launched an internal
probe, then turned the matter over to the South East District Internal
Affairs Unit.

Amand is presently on administrative duty and will appear in court at
an undetermined date.
