After parking his vehicle a block away, he stopped briefly to greet two brothers he knew at 1735 Sterling Place. While the plaintiff was speaking with the brothers, 15-20 individuals with motorcycles, whom the plaintiff did not know, were also present. At approximately 6:50 p.m., police officers, including Sergeant Gabriel Cuevas, arrived at the scene and ordered everyone to disperse.\n\nThe plaintiff was about to enter the brothers’ property to avoid being subjected to the officers' orders, but Sergeant Cuevas screamed at him to leave. When the plaintiff attempted to explain his connection to the residents, Sergeant Cuevas became angry and, without provocation, charged at the plaintiff, pushing him onto a nearby motorcycle. Several officers then assaulted the plaintiff, punching him for about ten minutes without legal justification, causing injuries to his back, ribs, and earlobes.\n\nDespite his visible injuries and difficulty breathing, the plaintiff was unlawfully handcuffed, searched, and falsely arrested without probable cause. He was transported to the 77th Precinct, where he requested medical attention. The plaintiff was taken to two hospitals for treatment of his injuries, including severe bruising to his ribs. He was detained for over 40 hours and charged with assaulting Sergeant Cuevas based on fabricated allegations. After numerous court appearances, all charges were dismissed by September 24, 2018.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=j6pkxitDn/9cPY6aFnyqSQ==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Perkins, Michael vs P.O.
