Property Damage from Police Shooting

  • 🎯 A Wilton Manors resident, Greg Codleman, is seeking compensation from the city for vehicle damage sustained during an officer-involved shooting.
  • ⚡ The incident occurred when officers fired on a neighbor, Larry Stout, who allegedly answered his door carrying a gun.
  • 🚗 Bullets from the police gunfire tore through Codleman's vehicle, causing an estimated $8,200 to $15,000 in damages.

City's Response and Resident's Plea

  • 🚫 Codleman and his partner Steve presented an estimate to the city of Wilton Manors, but their claim was respectfully declined.
  • 📄 A claims adjuster stated that damage resulting from law enforcement activities is excluded from coverage.
  • ⚖️ The city attorney reportedly advised Codleman to hire a lawyer, a step he believes is unnecessary as he did nothing wrong.
  • 🗣️ Codleman's message to the city is to "Step up. Own what you did. You know, it's not my fault."
  • 📰 Local 10 News reached out to the Wilton Manors Police Department for comment but is still awaiting a response.
