Story out of Idaho Falls, Idaho:
A local woman claims an Idaho Falls police officer assaulted her 12-year-old son.
The mother is now starting the process to take legal action against IFPD.
Amy Olzak's attorney sent a tort claim to IFPD last week.
It claims that an IFPD officer used unnecessary and excessive force on Olzak's minor son.
The damages stated on that claim are broken teeth, a possible concussion, and bruising and trauma to the neck and facial area.
Olzak said she reported her son missing on March 13.
"I just wanted them to help me find where he was," said Olzak.
Olzak and friends say they spent the day searching for him.
The mother says she immediately called dispatch after he was located by her friend.
"I just wanted them to be aware. They came over. I talked to an officer for a minute and he walked over to my son. Then he put my son's hand behind his back and like lifted him up in the air and slammed his face into the trunk of a car," said Olzak.
"He put his arm behind his back and his head into the back of trunk hard enough that it chipped his tooth and then placed him under arrest,"said Beck. Cont.
