A teenager who suffered a graze wound to the chin after an Aurora police officer shot him sued the officer this week, alleging the officer failed to announce himself before firing the bullet during a call about a stolen phone.
Jeremiah Dean‘s lawsuit against Aurora police Officer Bryce Settles alleges the officer’s decision to fire at Dean’s moving car on July 12, 2021, was dangerous, reckless and against department policy.
A spokesman for the Aurora Police Department declined to comment on the litigation but confirmed that Settles still worked for the department. Settles was not disciplined for his actions, spokesman Officer Matthew Longshore said.
