Despite Plaintiff and his girlfriend presenting documents proving the lawful purchase, the officers ignored their evidence, seized the moped, and arrested both Plaintiff and his girlfriend. At the precinct, Plaintiff was interrogated about unrelated criminal activity—such as guns and other criminal activity—illuminating the true reason for Plaintiff’s arrest. The officers then falsely accused him of grand larceny and criminal possession of a stolen vehicle, submitting these charges to the Bronx District Attorney’s Office. They also fabricated reasons for the stop, falsely alleging that Plaintiff ran red lights and endangered pedestrians.\n\nPlaintiff was issued a Desk Appearance Ticket and ordered to appear in court later. The Defendant officers retained Plaintiff's moped as \"Arrest Evidence,\" searched his backpack without a warrant or consent, and seized his keys, including house keys, which were never returned.

Some of the defendants were in uniform, while others were not. The officers asked Plaintiff if any gunshots were heard from her home, and informed Plaintiff that someone had been shot in the apartment located under her apartment’s bedroom. Plaintiff responded she had not heard any gunshots. Officers rushed into Plaintiff’s bedroom without consent, where her daughter’s boyfriend and daughter were present. Despite Plaintiff telling them there were no guns in her home, officers falsely insisted that a bullet had emanated from Plaintiff’s apartment, striking someone in the apartment below. \nAfter 30-45 minutes, Plaintiff and her daughter were brought to the Precinct for questioning, and Plaintiff’s daughter’s boyfriend was handcuffed and formally arrested. Plaintiff was shown four bullets that officers claimed were found in her apartment. Plaintiff was held in the Precinct for approximately two hours before being permitted to leave with her daughter. Upon returning home, Plaintiff found NYPD officers still inside her home. Officers told Plaintiff she could not enter her home unless she signed a permission to search form. Plaintiff was compelled under duress to sign the form before being able to re-enter her apartment. Later that evening, Detective Andre Smith called Plaintiff’s daughter back to the Precinct, and Plaintiff accompanied her. Detectives Hennessy and Andre Smith questioned Plaintiff and her daughter about a non-existent hole they claimed to have found in the floor of Plaintiff’s bedroom.\nPlaintiff later received a subpoena from the Bronx D.A.’s office, purporting to require her to testify before a grand jury. On August 16, 2018, Plaintiff arrived at the location stated on the subpoena. Instead of a grand jury, she was met by employees of the D.A.’s office, defendants Nyonyo, ADA Horton, and ADA Zarcone, who tried to get a recorded statement from Plaintiff. When Plaintiff refused to provide information that would help them prosecute Plaintiff’s daughter’s boyfriend, the D.A.’s office sought Plaintiff’s indictment and arrest based upon false and misleading information provided by NYPD. On August 24, 2018, Plaintiff was indicted and wrongfully charged of crimes related to the shooting. On September 12, 2017, Plaintiff was arrested at her home by NYPD officers and questioned at the Precinct by Defendants Rivera and Baker. She was booked and held for over a day before being arraigned and released.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nysd.528167/gov.uscourts.nysd.528167.1.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/16573033/suares-v-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Diallo, Mamadou vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2019-10-28","payout_amount":0,"disposition":"","docket":"031665/2019E","court":"Supreme Court - Bronx","officer_name":"Burgos, Juan A.","summary":"On or about December 5, 2016, Plaintiff was falsely arrested and detained by NYPD officers, including PO Gustavo Ochoa, Sgt.
