On day two of Euclid officer Michael Amiott's trial, jurors heard from the other police officer involved in the 2017 traffic stop in which Amiott repeatedly punched and kicked Richard Hubbard.
EUCLID, Ohio — Day two of the trial of a Euclid police officer accused of assault wrapped up Tuesday, and for the first time, jurors heard from the other police officer involved in the 2017 traffic stop in which Euclid officer Michael Amiott repeatedly punched and kicked Richard Hubbard.
Dash camera video shows Amiott grab Hubbard and take him to the ground. Cell phone video captured by a bystander then shows Amiott repeatedly punch Hubbard.Gilmer said he was convinced illegal activity was going on when he and Amiott pulled over Hubbard and his girlfriend in August of 2017, because, he said, Hubbard was agitated and slow to comply.“At no point is he like, ‘Hey, I want to give up. I want to be compliant,’” Gilmer said about Hubbard.
Amiott faces three misdemeanor charges — two counts of assault and one count of interfering with civil rights. He’s still currently a member of Euclid's police force, and works in the warrant service unit.
