Attorneys for Bellevue police officer Kevin Bereta are accusing the city of leaving their client without health benefits months after he was injured while trying to protect the Vice President of the United States.
Bereta, 39, was working as a part of the security detail during Vice President Kamala Harris’ visit to Seattle on Aug. 15 of last year. As he was traveling over the Michigan Street on-ramp, investigators say Bereta’s motorcycle hit the side of the ramp, forcing him to be thrown from his bike.He reportedly fell over the railing, landing 60 feet below on I-5.The accident left him with serious injuries to his back, leg, and shoulder.
Our city-provided benefits are consistent with other cities in the region, and they are based on best practices, medical insurance carrier contracts, and are ratified in agreements negotiated with the unions representing our employees. The city has a duty to administer our policies consistently and we will continuously evaluate these policies to ensure they reflect our value of commitment to employees and responsible stewardship to the community we serve.
