The NYPD officer defendants collectively handcuffed plaintiff too tightly, forcefully dragged him from his home, and threw him face first into a police vehicle. The NYPD officer defendants falsely claimed that plaintiff had burglarized the department.

The indictment was dismissed and sealed on the Bronx DA's office's motion on February 28, 2019. Plaintiff was left homeless, could not work, and had no money or property due to losing all of his belongings during the false arrest.","documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/23690177-williams-complaint","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/16720871/williams-v-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Luna, Yamil vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2019-11-12","disposition_date":"2021-01-21","payout_amount":25000,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"033206/2019E","court":"Supreme Court - Bronx","officer_name":"Deleon, Jose M.","summary":"On March 2, 2019, in the vicinity of East Kingsbridge Road and Creston Avenue, defendant police officers Deleonsanchez, Doe, Roe without warrant or cause, handcuffed and arrested the plaintiff with excessive force.
