On October 10, 2020, Officer Phillip Grayson initiated a traffic stop that led to allegations of excessive force against passenger Jacinta Danks. Danks alleged that after a brief pursuit, she was violently pulled from the car and thrown to the ground. Officer Grayson claimed that Danks struggled and bit his hand during the arrest. The court dismissed the excessive force claims against Officer Grayson, but the case highlighted concerns about the department’s handling of use of force incidents.
