URBANDALE, Iowa — A sergeant is suing an Iowa city for the treatment he received before and after responding to an ambush shooting that left two officers dead.
Urbandale Police Sgt. Mark Jorgensen claims he’s faced disability discrimination, failure to accommodate his disorders, harassment and retaliation under the Iowa Civil Rights Act due to incidents before and after the police killings, the Des Moines Register reports.
In the 2016 shooting, gunman Scott Michael Green fatally shot Urbandale Officer Justin Martin and Des Moines Police Sgt. Anthony Beminio. He was found guilty and sentenced to two consecutive terms of life in prison.
