GROSSE POINTE PARK, Mich.
(AP) — A spokesman for a Detroit suburb says a police officer has been
sidelined after taking responsibility for harassing a black man while
videotaping him.
Grosse Pointe Park
spokesman Greg Bowens tells the Detroit Free Press for a story
(http://on.freep.com/1i222v6) Friday that the unnamed officer has been removed
from patrol duty. Bowens says an investigation is nearly complete.
The videos were posted to
the website of a news outlet called the Motor City Muckraker. Bowens says
authorities are seeking additional videos from the site in an effort to
determine "if there is a pattern" of mistreatment.
