Kevin Weber, PO Joel Feliz, PO Jose Gomez, PO Sergey Pogosyan, and PO Anthony Rivera approached and falsely accused Plaintiff of crimes before violently grabbing Plaintiff's head and body, motivated in part by racial prejudice. POs were informed multiple times by Plaintiff and bystanders that Plaintiff is a paraplegic who cannot get out of a car on his own. At no time did Plaintiff refuse to exit the vehicle, only mentioning that he required assistance. Regardless, POs grabbed Plaintiff violently by his disabled leg and neck and ripped him from the car. \n\nPlaintiff was then illegally searched, including in intimate areas, without legal justification. POs then slammed Plaintiff on a car before violently handcuffing Plaintiff's wrists with excessively tight cuffs. The cuffs caused Plaintiff to experience bruising, swelling, pain, and discomfort. POs, taking inappropriate advantage of Plaintiff's disability, then allowed Plaintiff to fall backward to the ground while handcuffed with no ability to catch himself. Plaintiff's cell phone had started recorded and continued recording as POs took possession of it. Plaintiff's cell phone documented POs mocking and ridiculing Plaintiff in their police car as they fabricated charges against him. Plaintiff was wrongfully imprisoned for approximately three hours before his release. Plaintiff was also maliciously prosecuted but all charges were terminated due to lack of probable cause. Plaintiff suffered severe and permanent injuries of a physical and emotional nature as a result of this incident.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=QEZyWOybN7twDZHcC7ao4Q==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Lavan, Niquera, et al. vs City of Ny, et al.","start_date":"2023-01-27","disposition_date":"2023-09-20","payout_amount":299500,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"801562/2023E","court":"Supreme Court - Bronx","summary":"On September 24, 2022, at approximately 2:00pm, in the vicinity of Tiffany Street and Spofford Avenue, Bronx, NY, Plaintiffs NIQUERA LAVAN and RAYMOND BAEZ were stopped, searched, assaulted and detained by Defendant NYPD officers DUPRES, GARCIA, FELIZ, DOE, and ROE without warrant, probable cause, or any legal justification.
