CLEVELAND, Ohio – A Cleveland police officer involved in the altercation that killed Tanisha Anderson in November lied about a past use of force incident, according to his personnel file released Friday.

The Cleveland Division of Police issued Patrolman Scott Aldridge a three-day suspension without pay in April 2013 after finding him guilty of violating the division's Taser, use-of-force and ethics policies, among others.

A disciplinary letter signed by then-Chief Michael McGrath references a Jan. 2, 2012 incident in which a female was shocked with a Taser.

Aldridge witnessed the "accidental" use of a Taser by another officer and left the scene, failing to provide assistance to that officer or the injured woman, according to the letter.

Aldridge also failed to call an emergency medical crew or a superior officer to the scene, the letter stated.

He was found guilty of lying about the incident.

"Your typed response was in direct contradiction to what was seen on the video," the letter stated.

McGrath's letter did not provide details about the use-of-force incident.

Northeast Ohio Media Group has filed a public records request for video of the incident and related documents.

McGrath commended Aldridge in July 2011 for his "professionalism, kindness and support" offered to a victim of domestic violence.

A wrongful death lawsuit filed earlier this month by Anderon's family accused Aldridge and his rookie partner, Bryan Myers, of using excessive force against Anderson, killing her.

Police were dispatched to Anderson's home after a family member called 9-1-1 to report that Anderson, who suffered from mental illness, was acting unruly, but non-violent. The family told Northeast Ohio Media Group they were afraid Anderson would leave the home, wander the streets and get hurt.

Anderson, her family and the responding officers eventually agreed that Anderson should be taken in a patrol car to a local hopsital for a psychiatric evaluation.

Officers said Anderson kicked at them in a struggle to stay out of the patrol car and inexplicably went limp.

Anderson's family said she became extremely nervous, did not attack the officers and lost consciousness after an officer used a takedown move to put her in a prone position on the cold Cleveland street.

Aldridge and Myers did not try to provide medical care to Anderson and left her half-naked after her dress was lifted in the altercation, the family said.

The medical examiner ruled Anderson died by "sudden death associated with physical restraint in a prone position."

Aldridge also was disciplined for his role in the notorious Nov. 29, 2012 police chase in which two unarmed suspects were fatally shot when 13 officers let loose 137 rounds.

Aldridge was among the officer who violated protocol by joining the 60-plus car pursuit, but was not one of the officers who opened fire.

Myers graduated from the police academy in August 2014. He graduated alongside Timothy Loehmann, who shot and killed Tamir Rice.
