SELYA, Circuit Judge.
Plaintiff-appellant Mark Mancini is a veteran police officer in Providence, Rhode Island (the City). Following an injury that he sustained while on duty, Mancini sued the City for discrimination under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), 42 U.S.C. §§ 12101 - 12213, and related state antidiscrimination laws. The district court granted the City's motion for summary judgment, and Mancini now appeals. Although our reasoning differs to some extent from that of the district court, we affirm.
