Toronto cyclists to rally after police takedown injures rider

Toronto cyclists will rally Thursday evening after a rider was tackled by police, sustaining a concussion and other injuries. The demonstration follows a police takedown during a traffic stop on May 31. The cyclist's lawyer states his client was not medically assessed at the scene despite an apparent head injury. Police maintain the cyclist failed to stop, swore at officers, and attempted to flee. The Toronto Police Service and Association defend the officers' actions as lawful and appropriate.
