美华裔老人在警察上门后丧命 妻子起诉称遭暴力执法

据美国中文网报道,2018年8月,美国华盛顿伊瑟阔市(Issaquah)警方在接到一起噪音投诉后,前往当地一户华裔家庭。一个月后,该华裔家庭66岁的华裔男子冷望声(音译,Wangsheng Leng)身亡。近日,冷望声的遗孀提出联邦民权诉讼,称是两名警察错误滥用武力,导致其丈夫过世。

根据伊瑟阔警局近日发布在市府网站上的声明,当地时间2018年8月5日,冷望声的邻居拨打911报警电话,称听到冷家传来高声说话和扔东西的声音。警方怀疑有家庭暴力行为,随即上门查看。冷望声的妻子杨丽萍(音译,Liping Yang)开门后,警察“发现冷望声从妻子身后抱着她”,且大门开始合上,于是强行进门,试图抓住冷望声,但冷一直抗拒。因此,警察抓住他的手臂,再移到沙发上将其铐起来。在这之后,警方呼叫了救护车。

而根据诉讼文件里的描述,警察将冷望声扔在沙发上,将他的手臂扭到身后,从而压断了他的脖子,导致其颈椎受损。在被手铐铐住后,冷望声走路变得一瘸一拐。诉讼中还表示,由于已经造成不可逆转的脊柱损伤,冷望声即使活下来,余生也会在轮椅上度过,而他在生命的最后31天里,也承受了极大的痛苦。

冷望声于2018年9月5日身亡。法医检查的结果是,其死于他杀,死因为脊柱损伤。在警方请求下,法医目前正在调查警察当时使用武力的情况。不过,警方在声明中并不承认是执法导致冷望声受伤。

杨丽萍聘请的律师之一欧文斯(音译,David B. Owens)表示,冷望声和妻子结婚30年,从来没有家庭暴力的记录,而邻居在报警时称听到“有人用自己不懂的语言叫喊”,但警察抵达时,并没有这样的情况。欧文斯认为,警方既没有逮捕令,也没有合理的理由强行进入冷家,“他们没有耐心呼叫翻译,或是花时间弄清楚到底发生了什么,就直接闯入公寓,并把人推走。”

欧文斯还介绍,伊瑟阔有越来越多的华裔老人定居,而冷望声和杨丽萍都不懂英语,只会说中文;此外,冷望声患有阿尔兹海默症(俗称“老年痴呆”),法医检查的结果也显示他有痴呆症状。

警方的声明没有提及警察在上门后是否有遇到语言或文化障碍。伊瑟阔市配有翻译人员,警方在语言不通时可以寻求帮助,但声明也未提及警察当时是否有这样做。

杨丽萍将伊瑟阔市府和两名警察列为被告,他们分别是2014年进入警局的43岁警员迈克尔·路奇(Michael Lucht)、以及2016年进入警局的33岁警员凯伦·威顿(Kylen Whittom)。诉讼要求市府和警局做出经济赔偿,警方须改变执法方式,并且进行新的训练,以预防此类事件再度发生。
