A Manitoba Mountie has been charged with a driving offence after an investigation into an arrest last year.

The province's police watchdog says an R-C-M-P officer saw a man driving dangerously on a motorcycle in August near Dauphin and tried to conduct a traffic stop.

The Independent Investigation Unit said at the time that the motorcycle was "contained" after more police arrived, but the man suffered three broken ribs while being arrested.

Corporal Kevin Challoner has been charged with failure to drive with due regard to safety under the Highway Traffic Act.
