The responding NYPD officers, including Daniel Wynne, Justin Garcia, Pedro Lopez, and Aaliyah Card, escalated the situation, even though no criminal matter was involved. Officer Wynne falsely broadcasted that Plaintiff was armed and involved in a murder, leading to the officers using excessive force. Plaintiff was physically restrained, assaulted, and his pre-existing shoulder injury was aggravated, resulting in a dislocation that required surgery. Despite knowing Plaintiff was unarmed, the officers detained him and ignored his pleas for medical attention. Plaintiff was further injured when Officer Louis Vannucci forcibly yanked his arm while he was handcuffed, exacerbating his injuries.\n\nThe complaint alleges that these officers acted based on false information generated by NYPD's Patternizr system, which inaccurately flagged the Plaintiff as a suspect in crimes, including murder. The officers used this false information as justification for their actions, leading to multiple arrests, extended detention, and further violations of Plaintiff's rights, including deprivation of necessary medical care. The lawsuit seeks damages for civil rights violations under the U.S. Constitution, as well as New York State law.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=BKDi5ljD46yiLYLBnOeplQ==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Boothe, Eusebio vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2019-01-23","disposition_date":"2019-11-07","payout_amount":25000,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"020853/2019E","court":"Supreme Court - Bronx","officer_name":"Sammarco, David","summary":"On August 15, 2018, several police officers including Det.
