A female police officer becomes pregnant and after a scuffle with an arrestee, is told by her

Question:

A female police officer becomes pregnant and after a scuffle with an arrestee, is told by her doctor to request a light-duty assignment. The police department says it has no such positions available and that the officer must take leave until she could return to full duty, which ended up being from September to June. The female cites two male officers who were injured and did not stop working. Is this discrimination? [Tysinger v. Police Department of the City of Zanesville, 463 F.3d 569 (6th Cir. 2006).]
