A surveillance video that is part of a civil lawsuit filed in B.C. Supreme Court shows an RCMP officer in Kelowna dragging a female nursing student down a hallway and stepping on her head after a wellness check at her apartment.

The suit alleging physical and emotional abuse was filed by Mona Wang, a student at the University of British Columbia's Okanagan campus in Kelowna, against RCMP Cpl. Lacy Browning on March 23.

The officer disputes the claim, saying that only necessary force was used to subdue the student when she became violent. In Browning's statement of defence, filed June 15, she alleges Wang had a box cutter in her hand and denies that she assaulted the student.


None of the allegations has been proven in court.

In the notice of claim, Wang says she was experiencing mental distress on the evening of Jan. 20, 2020, and her boyfriend called the RCMP requesting a wellness check.

The lawsuit says Browning found Wang lying on her apartment's bathroom floor and did not provide medical assistance.
 
Think very carefully before you invite the government into your life.

"Hi, yes police? Can you come over and do a wellness check on me please? Yes, ok, just the usual foot on my head routine. Ok thanks. See you soon!"
