Defendants grabbed him with their hands, threw him to the ground, and dragged him along the ground. Defendants then tased plaintiff before handcuffing him tightly enough to cause pain and bleeding in his wrists. Defendants then took plaintiff to a nearby precinct, where he was searched, questioned without counsel present, and not provided medical attention after being tased. Plaintiff, who is black, believes the actions against him were motivated by his status as a member of a racial minority.\n\nDefendants then submitted false statements to the district attorney, causing him to be charged with criminal violations.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=Gx6gsIdDcPSAUanp38qcMg==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Ekeoma, Amarachukwu vs City of Ny, et al.","start_date":"2023-03-29","payout_amount":0,"disposition":"","docket":"23CV00946","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","documents":[{"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.492329/gov.uscourts.nyed.492329.13.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/66792206/ekeoma-v-the-city-of-new-york/"}],"discipline":[{"disposition_date":"2024-05-15","case_no":"2023-29448","penalty":"A - Command Discipline, vacation days (1 day)","recommendation":"Command Discipline - A","allegations":[{"desc":"Violated patrol rules - failed to provide a business card"}]}],"payroll":{"salary":"60363","regular":"59176","overtime":"19419","other":"10055","total":"88650"},"id":"HBJZ","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/HBJZ"}
