The Cleveland police officer who was involved in the brutal murder of a black couple was arrested four days after being acquitted of the murders. Officer Michael Brelo and his twin brother Mark Brelo were arrested after a brawl between the brothers occurred. According to CNN, the fight happened at the home of Michael Brelo on May 27th at 4 A.M.

When the police arrived, it appeared that Mark Brelo was intoxicated with a few marks that showed he was in an altercation. When asked, Michael says that he was in an altercation with his brother. An investigation was done and it showed that the brothers had been drinking and got into an altercation with each other. A prosecutor is investigating the case.
Four days prior to the fight between the brothers, Brelo was acquitted in the murders of Timothy Russell and Malissa Williams who were shot and killed by Cleveland police after a 22 mile car chase. Brelo stood on top of the car of the couple and shot 15 times into the couple’s car. It was later found that they were unarmed. The justice department is reviewing the case.
