<sigh> These types of kudos warm my heart in light of the recent Genoa
atrocity.
Police Use Exact Right Amount Of Force To Subdue Suspect
CHICAGO-- A pair of Chicago police officers earned accolades Monday,
when
they used the perfect amount of force to subdue 22-year-old robbery
suspect
Reggie Clifton. "Officers [Brendan] Ford and [Matt] Molloy did a
terrific job,
putting the suspect in a restraining headlock that was strong enough to
immobilize
him, yet not so strong as to accidentally cause his neck to snap,"
police chief Frank
DeLuca said. "It should also be noted that these two exemplary officers
did not
open fire on the suspect when he put his hands in the air, mistakenly
thinking he
was reaching for a gun somewhere above his head."
