Garcia, and P.O. John and Jane Does # 1-5, at times acting in concert and at times acting independently, committed the following illegal acts against the plaintiff. On March 25, 2010, at approximately 6:00 a.m., at and in the vicinity of 562 Academy Street, Apartment H24, New York, New York, plaintiff was an overnight guest in the apartment when, without consent, an arrest warrant, a lawful search warrant, probable cause, or reasonable suspicion that plaintiff (or any third person) had committed a crime, the defendants unlawfully entered the apartment by breaking through the door and drew their firearms at plaintiff and her eleven month old child. Once the defendant officers entered the apartment, plaintiff was not free to disregard their questions, or walk way or leave the scene. While inside the apartment, defendants, without consent, an arrest warrant, a lawful search warrant, probable cause, or reasonable suspicion to believe that plaintiff (or any third person) had committed a crime falsely arrested plaintiff. During the arrest of plaintiff, defendants committed excessive force against her, by maliciously, gratuitously, and unnecessarily pointing a firearm at her, grabbing plaintiff, and placing excessively tight handcuffs on plaintiff's wrists. Those defendants who did not touch plaintiff, witnessed these acts, but failed to intervene and protect plaintiff from this conduct.The individual defendant officers did not have an objective and/or reasonable basis to use any degree of force against plaintiff, since plaintiff was unarmed, compliant, and did not resist arrest. Plaintiff was physically injured as a result of the excessive use of force, and suffered numbness and marks to her wrists. Plaintiff asked the individual defendants to loosen the cuffs, but they did not. Plaintiff told the defendants that she was not a resident of the apartment but they ignored her and threatened to take her child to protective services if she did not inform them of criminal activity within the apartment.","documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4919330-Miyares-v-The-City-of-New-York-et-al"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/4349238/miyares-v-the-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Jaquez v.
