PRINCE GEORGE, B.C. - B.C.'s Independent Investigations Office has been deployed to Prince George after a man being pursued by a Mountie fell down an embankment and suffered serious injuries.

The office says RCMP responded to a complaint at an apartment building just after midnight and an officer followed a man he saw walking out of the building.

During the pursuit, the Mountie observed the man fall eight metres down the embankment.
