NORMAN, Okla. (AP) A Norman police officer who was fired after shooting at a naked man who he said tried to run him over has been ordered to be reinstated.

But officer John Terry says despite the April 29 order by an arbitrator he has not been reinstated and he can't get the city attorney to return his phone calls.

City Attorney Jeff Bryant did not return a phone call for comment.

Attorney Tony Puckett represented the city at the arbitration hearing and says the city is reviewing its options. Puckett said he can't answer whether the city will appeal the arbitrator's ruling.

City documents submitted at the hearing say the officer was fired for misfeasance.
