A federal magistrate closed a police brutality lawsuit against Stowe, its police chief and two officers.
Brian Vratoric, 37, of McKees Rocks claimed that Stowe police Officer Molly Connolly and McKees Rocks police Officer Erica Miller injured him during a Feb. 22, 2009, arrest for speeding, reckless driving and fleeing police. Vratoric pleaded no contest to nine charges in September 2010 and was sentenced to 18 months of probation, according to court records.
U.S. Magistrate Robert Mitchell's order on Wednesday closing the case doesn't provide any details of the settlement. The attorneys for Vratoric and the township couldn't be reached for comment.
