PER CURIAM:
Corey Moody appeals from the district court’s awards of summary judgment to
police officers Danielle Hollandsworth and Randy Gibson, in their individual capacities,
in this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil action. See Moody v. City of Newport News, No. 4:14-cv-
00099 (E.D. Va. June 16, 2016) (the “Opinion”). Moody was severely injured by
gunshot wounds suffered on December 12, 2012, during a traffic stop and arrest in
Newport News, Virginia. The district court rejected Moody’s excessive force claims
against Hollandsworth and Gibson, and ruled that both officers are entitled to qualified
immunity.
We have carefully assessed the arguments made by the parties in their briefs and at
oral argument. We have also fully evaluated the record on appeal. Having done so, we
are satisfied to adopt the reasoning and analysis of the district court and to affirm on the
basis of the court’s comprehensive and well-crafted Opinion.
AFFIRMED
