News / Cops BREAKING: Sizer To Give Press Conference About Chasse Cop Humphreys
Posted by Matt Davis on Thu, Nov 19, 2009 at 3:37 PM
Police Chief Rosie Sizer plans to announce something about Police Officer Chris Humphreys—the cop in the Chasse case—at 4pm at the justice center.
Rumor is that Humphreys was involved in another controversial use of force incident over the weekend, and that a suspension may be looming. We'll have details from the scene.
The Police Union is already up in arms, and plans a press conference immediately following Sizer's, at 4:15.
