 NEW ORLEANS (CN) - A key witness in the criminal investigation of police shootings after Hurricane Katrina sued New Orleans, its mayor, police chief and seven officers, claiming he was harassed and intimidated so severely he had to be put in the federal witness protection program. Bernard Calloway sued the city and its officials for $2.5 million in Federal Court. Calloway claims he was witness to the first stages of the police attack on Henry Glover, whom police shot, then drove to a levee in a Chevy Malibu, where they set the car ablaze. On Sept. 2, 2005, three days after Katrina hit New Orleans, Calloway says, he was walking with Henry Glover, 31, behind an Algiers strip mall on General DeGaulle Drive. Calloway says in his complaint that New Orleans police Officer David Warren, on the second floor of the strip mall, "fired his assault rifle at Mr. Glover injuring him severely." Read More |
