A Loveland police officer was terminated after he hit a woman in the face while she was being evaluated at the hospital, the Loveland Police Department said in a Wednesday morning news release.
Officers had initially responded to a report of a woman walking in and out of traffic and speaking incoherently near North Garfield Avenue and East 29th Street. The officers put her in custody and took her to the Medical Center of the Rockies for evaluation.
The woman was “verbally abusive toward healthcare professionals and spat at a nurse and on one of the officers,” the news release states. “The officer responded with an inappropriate use of force by striking the female in the face causing minor injuries to her face. The offending officer’s partner immediately intervened, removed him from the room and radioed for a supervisor to respond to the scene.
