Dept. of Justice rules cops in Cleveland use excessive force

Police in the US city of Cleveland, Ohio do have pattern of using excessive force - that's the result of a year-long study recently completed by the Department of Justice.

Speaking from Cleveland, Attorney General Eric Holder announced that city officials and the Justice Department will together create a statement of principles that can be used to hold officers accountable in court, when their use of force is suspect.

Mr. Holder cited insufficient accountability, training, policies, and a lack of community engagement by the police department as factors contributing to the use of excessive force.

Cleveland was recently the site of the fatal shooting of black 12 year old Tamir Rice, who was playing outside with a fake gun when he was killed by a white officer.

This is merely one in a string of high profile, racially charged incidents involving the police across the US.
