</div><br>Champaign police pulled Calvin over and then rammed his van with squad cars after which he fled in fright. When ordered to stop and get on the ground, he complied. He was then beaten with a baton, handcuffed, pepper sprayed up his nose, and taken to the hospital. Officer Lieb, who beat Calvin, is reported to have beaten a number of African-Americans in recent months. As of Monday night, Calvin was on crutches with a swollen eye.<br>
<br>Champaign's Chief and Deputy Chief of Police are leaving the force. City Council is re-considering creating a Civilian Review Board of Police. This is an essential time for the public to speak up.<br><br>For more information contact: Danielle Chynoweth <a href="mailto:chyn@ucimc.org" target="_blank">chyn@ucimc.org</a>.<br>
