TAMPA, Fla. - Four sheriff's deputies have been suspended after a quadriplegic man was tipped out of his wheelchair at a Florida jail.
Jail surveillance footage from Jan. 29 shows a veteran deputy dumping Brian Sterner out of his wheelchair and searching him on the floor after he was brought in on a warrant after a traffic violation.
Sterner says when he was taken into a booking room and told to stand up, the deputy grew agitated when he told her he could not. Sterner can drive a car but has not been able to walk since a 1994 wrestling accident.
