CLEVELAND, OH (WOIO) –
The Cleveland Police Patrolmen’s Association calls the firings of six Cleveland officers “politically motivated.”
Six Cleveland police officers were fired Tuesday. The firings come as a result of the administrative discipline hearings for the 13 Cleveland police officers involved in the deadly November 2012 police chase and shooting.

The police union president Steve Loomis says the union will fight the punishment from beginning to end.
