Two officers from the Devon and Cornwall Police, Pc Emmit Wookey, 30, and Pc Liam Dunn, 27, are set to face magistrates in connection with a common assault charge. This follows an incident that occurred earlier this year in Exeter city centre.
The charges stem from an event on March 19, 2023, involving the officers and a man who was stopped and searched on New North Road, near Longbrook Street, in Exeter. The incident led to a complaint and an investigation by the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC).
