A Connecticut police officer who opened fire on an unarmed couple's car, seriously wounding a woman, was charged Monday with assault and reckless endangerment. "It's a sad day for the law enforcement community because the message officer Eaton's arrest sends is that they need to be 100 percent right 100 percent of the time." Griffin said no weapons were found on Witherspoon, Washington or in the car. "Additionally, the reckless manner in which the shots were discharged placed those in the immediate vicinity, including Paul Witherspoon and Officer Pollock, at risk for serious physical injury." ———This story has been updated to correct the spelling of the last name of the Yale University officer to Pollock, not Pollack.
