Good God what is happening with the police today............
When a man pointing a Glock pistol approached Gregory Loves car in downtown Cleveland late one night, Love did the only sensible thing possible, he says: he put up his hands and decided to let the man have what he wanted.
But Vincent Montague shot him in the chest anyway, according to Love, before having the 29-year-old forcibly removed from his silver Range Rover and his hands fastened together behind his back.
The man that shot Love was Cleveland police officer Montague who was suspended for just one day. Love has field a lawsuit.
The lawsuit states that Love and Biggins had their hands raised above their heads and avoided sudden or furtive gestures or movements, yet Montague pointed his gun and threatened them before leaning into the drivers window to take the keys from the ignition. Montague insists that Loves hands were not up and that his right hand remained at his waist. A Vine video filmed by an onlooker appears to show Love raising at least one hand.
