Six Metropolitan Police officers are being investigated after a black child, aged 16 at the time, suffered a broken knee during a stop and search in north London. The boy was forced off his electric bike due to concerns about his behaviour and was arrested on suspicion of a racially aggravated public order offence, threats to kill and dangerous driving. The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) launched an investigation in November into the incident, looking at the level of force used, whether race or the child's age was a factor in their treatment. Three police constables are currently being investigated for potential offences of assault or actual bodily harm, and two officers are also being investigated separately for potential gross misconduct.
