Anderson was arrested for allegedly violating an Order of Protection by sending a \"friend request\" to her niece on Instagram, which was later changed to Facebook. Anderson denied the allegations and offered proof, which was refused. Anderson was taken to the 71st Precinct, where she was unlawfully searched, detained, and denied medical assistance despite suffering from extreme dehydration, headaches, and chest pains. After three hours into her detainment at Central Booking, the medical team informed her that Anderson's blood pressure was so elevated that she was currently experiencing a 'mini-stroke' and was immediately transferred to Brooklyn Methodist Hospital via ambulance. The complaint alleges false arrest, excessive force, denial of medical care, and malicious prosecution that resulted in physical, emotional, and psychological injuries.","documents":[{"url":"https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=NUqh59Nsf9rvBF96rtHtUw==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Friedman, Nathan vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2018-10-03","disposition_date":"2022-01-31","payout_amount":0,"disposition":"Administrative Closing","docket":"519154/2018","court":"Supreme Court - Kings","officer_name":"Vigilance, Fitzroy","summary":"On July 4, 2017, Plaintiff was lawfully operating his vehicle at an intersection in Brooklyn, with his wife and children in the vehicle.
