LOVELAND, Colo. (AP) - A Loveland police officer has been charged with two misdemeanors tied to his use of force during an arrest of an individual last November.
District Attorney Cliff Riedel says a grand jury returned indictments against Sgt. Justin Chase on Wednesday for misdemeanor assault and misdemeanor harassment.
Details of what happened during the arrest were not immediately released.
