In 2013, Officer Belair was terminated after a video surfaced showing him berating and threatening a motorist during a traffic stop. He was charged with second-degree threatening and third-degree assault but was acquitted. In 2018, a Connecticut Superior Court judge ordered the city to rehire him. Since his reinstatement, Belair has received several accolades and was promoted to sergeant in January 2024.
