Woman Sues Allegheny County Jail Claims Officers Used Excessive Force

PITTSBURGH — A Pittsburgh woman says corrections officers abused her using excessive force inside the Allegheny County jail. The alleged abuse occurred when she was 20 years old.

She is now suing the facility, after she says the officers shoved her, sending her face first into an elevator rail before tasering her.

Kimberly Andrews, 20, was incarcerated on two misdemeanor charges. Surveillance video shows her being escorted into the Allegheny County Jail after she had just been treated at the hospital and kept in solitary confinement.
