CHICAGO (CN) - A police officer caused a pregnant teenager to miscarry by kneeing her in the stomach and then sending the ambulance away, the girl claims in a federal complaint.

"What began as a battery quickly turned into a wrongful death when Harvey Police Officer R. Jones beat an innocent teenaged girl, who he knew to be pregnant, and caused the death of her developing fetus," according to the complaint.

"Officer Jones stole a young mother's joy and hope and replaced it with despair and anguish. He then turned away an approaching ambulance and denied medical care for a crying, pregnant young girl.
