LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) – Little Rock’s police chief is suing the local police
union, two assistant chiefs and several officers, accusing them of a conspiracy
aimed at forcing him out of his job. The federal lawsuit filed Wednesday by
Chief Keith Humphrey is the latest round in an escalating public fight within
the department centered on his response to the fatal shooting of a Black
motorist by a white police officer last year. Humphrey is accusing the union of
orchestrating a campaign against him that included lawsuits claiming retaliation
against assistant chiefs.
