David Klecka, the former athletic director at Mesa High School, has filed a notice of claim against the City of Mesa, alleging that a police report containing “false and misleading information” caused damage to his career and reputation. According to reports, Klecka claims the police report directly led to the loss of his job.
The claim seeks $750,000 in damages from the city. Klecka asserts that the police report caused “irreparable damage” to his professional standing and career prospects. The specifics of what the police report contained and the circumstances surrounding its creation and release have not been detailed in the available reporting.
This claim represents the next step in what appears to be a dispute between Klecka and local law enforcement or city officials. The case will likely proceed through the city’s claims process before any potential litigation.
