Jury clears Southaven officers of wrongdoing in death of Ismael Lopez
SUMMARY: A jury has dismissed a lawsuit claiming that two police officers violated the civil rights of a Southaven resident when they fatally shot him at the wrong address while serving an arrest warrant. The case was filed by Claudia Linares after her husband, Ismael Lopez, was killed. The officers had been sent to serve an arrest warrant for a neighbor who had allegedly choked a woman. The officers claimed that they saw a rifle aimed at them through a crack in the door, prompting them to fire shots, one of which struck Lopez in the head. The jury found the officers not civilly liable for Lopez’s death.
