Judge asks for briefs in patrolman abuse case
Police prosecutors and defense counsel were ordered to file briefs interpreting the law on left turns and on abusing an officer in a case where Arthur J. Abraham, 20, his mother Martha, and sister Mary Ann were charged after Amherst residents allegedly attacked Ohio State Patrolman Donald Van Meter during an arrest stemming from an improper left turn. The officer testified he was struck with a broom, bitten, and punched as the trio resisted, with one neighbor helping and an ambulance summoned. Abraham cited heart issues and a physician's letter urging surgery before 25. Briefs are due in about two weeks.
