..."The officer sped up and caught up with him. My husband didn't notice him," May Harris said.
She said Krafft came up behind her husband.
"[His face] was repeatedly slammed violently against the side of the car, right in the passenger side window," said Harris.
She said her husband's face was slammed three or four times as their children watched from the backseat."......The Chula Vista City Attorney's Office declined to comment, citing pending litigation. However, in court filings, it claims the incident was "caused … by the plaintiff's own negligence, fault, reckless or unlawful conduct."
"In a statement, police said: "The simple fact that an officer has been named in a lawsuit does not indicate fault or wrongdoing, even if that officer has been named in a prior lawsuit … We believe the actions of our officer and department were appropriate and justified."www.10news.com/news/28554452/detail.html
