Ind. Law - Former Indiana attorney captured in Phoenix
Dave Overton of The Elkhart Truth reports:
PHOENIX -- A former Elkhart police officer and Indianapolis attorney was arrested in northern Phoenix Tuesday night in a stolen car and later identified as a federal bank robbery fugitive.Bruce Davidson Jr., 41, was taken into custody without incident, according to the FBI in Phoenix. * * *
Davidson was put on the FBI's wanted list in August 2005 as a suspect in a series of bank robberies in seven states. * * *
The former Elkhart police officer was fired from the department in 1995.
He moved to Indianapolis and became an attorney, practicing law in the Indianapolis area. In 2002, he won a defamation lawsuit against former Elkhart Mayor James Perron.
The Indiana Supreme Court took away Davidson's attorney's license in 2004 after finding him guilty of six counts of misconduct, specifically taking clients' money for lawsuits in which he did little or no work.
