In 1998, Officer David J. Wolny was involved in an incident where he collided with a bicyclist, William Hurley, who sustained severe injuries. Eyewitnesses filed complaints alleging that Wolny’s use of force was unjustified. An investigation revealed discrepancies in Wolny’s statements, leading to charges of providing false information and insubordination. Following disciplinary hearings, Wolny was terminated from the Bozeman Police Department. ([caselaw.findlaw.com](https://caselaw.findlaw.com/court/mt-supreme-court/1368399.html?utm_source=openai))
