Six Cleveland cops indicted for hail of bullets that killed two unarmed car chase suspects

Six Cleveland police officers were indicted on Friday on charges related to a November 2012 car chase that left two suspects dead after officers fired 137 times upon them after their car came to a halt in a schoolyard , according to WSLS10.

Officer Michael Brelo has been charged with two counts of manslaughter after prosecutors claimed he stood on the hood of the suspects’ car and fired at least 15 shots through the windshield. Five police supervisors were charged with dereliction of duty for failing to control the chase.
