An arbitrator halved the suspension Cleveland police officer Frank Garmback received for his role in the fatal shooting of 12-year-old Tamir Rice.

Garmback's original 10-day suspension was reduced to five days by arbitrator Daniel Zeiser of Cleveland. Garmback was previously suspended for using improper tactics when driving his police cruiser to within feet of Tamir and for failing to notify dispatchers when he arrived at Cudell Recreation Center.

Zeiser wrote in his April 4 opinion released to cleveland.com Tuesday as part of a public records request that the city incorrectly put Garmback's disciplinary proceedings in the most serious disciplinary category -- called the Group III category.

The Group III category typically includes excessive uses of force or officer's caught stealing on the job, Zeisler wrote.

Zeisler concluded that Safety Director Michael McGrath disciplined Garmback for offenses that didn't merit the most serious form of discipline.

"Employing improper tactics, while not as serious as the conduct listed in Group III, is more than a minor violation and warrants more than a warning," Zeisler wrote.

Garmback drove a patrol car within feet of Tamir seconds before his partner, now-fired officer Timothy Loehmann, jumped out and fired the shots that killed the boy Nov. 22, 2014 outside Cudell Recreation Center.

Garmback was serving as Leohmann's training officer when they went to investigate a report of a "guy with a gun" scaring people outside the recreation center. Tamir had an airsoft replica pistol tucked in his waistband when he was shot, investigators determined.
