An officer with the Vancouver Police Department has been charged with assault in connection with an incident that occurred nearly a year ago. Jason Grewal has been charged with one count of assault, with the offence alleged to have occurred in Vancouver on Sept. 9, 2025, the B.C. Prosecution Service said in a statement Thursday. “The charges were approved by an experienced Crown counsel who has no connection with the accused,” a spokesperson for the BCPS wrote. Grewal is not in custody, and his first court appearance is scheduled for Oct. 1. “As these matters are now before the court, the BCPS will not be releasing any additional information or commenting further at this time,” the statement from the prosecution service said.
