POLICE STOP OF BLACK COP IS RULED UNLAWFUL

A black Miami-Dade police major on trial for battering sheriff's deputies
and resisting arrest during a traffic stop in Orlando,Fla., won a major
victory Wednesday when a judge ruled that he was unlawfully stopped.

Aaron Campbell has claimed he was stopped because as a black man from South
Florida he fit a racial profile deputies use to stop motorists and search
them for drugs.

Orange County Circuit Judge Thomas Mihok also threw out two of the six
charges Campbell was facing.
