The RCMP say a settlement has been reached in a civil lawsuit filed last year by a university student who claimed she was injured by a police officer who was supposed to be doing a health check in Kelowna, B.C. Lacey Browning and Mona Wang, who was a nursing student at the University of British Columbia at the time, are confidential. Supreme Court last March alleges that Wang was injured during a police check conducted by Browning in January 2020. Wang could not be reached for comment but Global News reported she issued a statement to the news organization confirming that a settlement had been reached in the lawsuit.
