Cleveland police officer acquitted in killings that followed 2012 car chase

By James Queally, Los Angeles Times (TNS)

Cleveland police officer Michael Brelo was acquitted Saturday of manslaughter charges brought after he shot two unarmed people at the end of a wild 2012 car chase in which officers fired 137 shots.

Brelo, 31, was accused of jumping onto the hood of a car and unleashing a fatal barrage of gunfire at Timothy Russell and Malissa Williams. On Nov. 29, 2012, Russell led police on a 20-mile chase after he allegedly fired a gun at officers near the city’s downtown justice center.

 Brelo was found not guilty by a judge’s verdict.
