The Loveland Police Department is facing another excessive use of force lawsuit after the release of information and footage of a 2020 arrest of a man and his then-14-year-old daughter as well as the treatment of one of their family dogs.
Owners of dog shot by Loveland police officer speak out about incident: “It’s not right what they’re doing”
While four officers responded to the Siers home and waited 20 minutes, they were unable to come in contact with S.S. or her father. When Siers returned home from work that day, he saw several missed calls from the LPD and called them back, telling them he and his daughter were at their home; this led to the three officers named in the suit responding to the residence.
The suit adds that, per LPD policy on handcuffing, people 14 or younger should not be restrained unless they are “suspected of a dangerous felony.” While in the parking space, Sychla pulled out a stun gun and, after Siers began to walk toward him, fired it, hitting Siers in the stomach and causing him to collapse. Skippy can be seen in the video trying to pull its way over to him.
The suit claims that S.S. was arrested and charged with harassment, domestic violence, obstruction and resisting arrest while Siers was charged with obstructing a police officer and resisting arrest; the suit adds both sets of charges were eventually dismissed. The video also encourages viewers to contact the city of Loveland and “let them know your thoughts on their amazing police department!”
She added that while she had tried to let Loveland settle the matter without taking it public, the city had declined.
