Seattle sheriff's deputy gives innocent man brain damage with shove

"We look at this as a tragic accident; nothing more than that," said sheriff's spokesman Sgt. John Urquhart.

Urquhart said an investigation by the Sheriff's Office has found the deputy who knocked Harris into the wall apparently did not commit a criminal act. An internal investigation will determine whether the deputy and a second deputy involved in the chase violated any department policies.

Urquhart said the first deputy gave Harris a "hard push."

The findings of the sheriff's investigation will be forwarded to the King County Prosecutor's Office to make a final determination on whether criminal charges should be filed.
