Vancouver police officers were disciplined in 2022 and 2023 for stealing fentanyl, kissing youths and abusing their authority on numerous occasions, according to B.C.’s police oversight agency.
The Office of the Police Complaint Commissioner detailed the results of several dozen substantiated allegations against Vancouver officers in its latest fiscal report released last November.
In most cases, officers were issued written or verbal reprimands or briefly suspended, but in three instances officers were fired for their offences.
