Man Wins Million Dollar Excessive Force Lawsuit Against LAPD

Description:A jury this week found a Los Angeles police officer used excessive force when he handcuffed a partially paralyzed man tightly enough to cause nerve damage in the man's wrist. Allen Harris, 56, was awarded nearly $1.6 million Wednesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court for his injuries, marking the latest in a long string of seven-figure verdicts against the Los Angeles Police Department for officer misconduct.
