both arms while still in his cruiser, police said at the time. A chase

multiple times by several law enforcement officials."

03:23 "Meanwhile, Bonney is conducting an internal investigation at

the Waterville Police Department to make sure the force used was

within policy, he said. As part of department policy, a review team is

appointed by the police chief to review the incident to determine two

things: whether all policies were followed and whether any changes

need to be made to policies based on the incident, according to

Bonney."

07:30 "The problem is that at least some of the judges in the city are

already proactively implementing new bail reform policies that are set

to go into effect on the first of the year. The Mayor and City Council

members have determined that cash bail is somehow racist and unfair to

various members of the community."

a knife near a Clearlake Oaks dollar store, ending a fight that sent
