Family of man shot by police files intent to sue
The family of a Gainesville man shot last year by police has filed a required notice of intent to sue Alachua County, the Sheriff's Office and the city of Gainesville, claiming that negligence at the joint city/county dispatch center played a role in the incident.
The family of a man shot to death two years ago during what police described as a knife-wielding standoff has filed a wrongful death suit against the city.
