An acquaintance of Plaintiff had just taken a \"Roman Candle\" style firecracker out of the possession of a group of young children playing in the area. Plaintiff was not in the possession of any fireworks. Plaintiff then witnessed two NYPD officers walking towards him, including Defendant PO Ryan O'Connor. Out of precaution, to avoid being implicated in the possession of a firecracker by his friend, Plaintiff began to walk towards his apartment building. At this point, Defendant POs, including Ryan O'Connor, Ronnie Rivera, and Wilfredo Ramos, ran up to Plaintiff and aggressively slammed him into the ground, causing him to hit a parked car on his way to the ground. Plaintiff immediately showed signs of extreme pain in his left leg, however, Defendant POs O'Connor, Rivera, and Ramos restrained Plaintiff's arms behind his back and dismissed his requests for medical attention.  Defendant POs Michelle Hanson, Larry Meyers, Eric Worohy, and Joseph Calabrese, were also present at the time of Plaintiff's arrest and ignored his complaints of severe pain. Plaintiff was handcuffed and transported to the 71st Precinct in Brooklyn. In the course of transport, Plaintiff continued to express pain and request medical attention for the injury to his left leg, but these complaints were ignored despite the visible disfiguration, bruising, and inflammation of the leg. Several hours passed before Plaintiff was brought upstairs for arraignment on July 5, 2014. At the time of his arraignment, a Court officer acknowledged the condition of his leg and inquired as to why there were no medical records in the Court's file. \n\nFollowing his release from Defendant's custody, Plaintiff went to the Emergency Department of Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center to receive treatment for his left leg and ankle. Plaintiff received a diagnosis of a fracture of the left tibia and fibula, multiple fractures of his ankle, and serious swelling, bruising, and inflammation.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.364519.21.0.pdf","type":"complaint"},{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4922498-Hall-v-City-of-New-York-et-al"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/4323981/hall-v-city-of-new-york/"}],"discipline":[{"disposition_date":"2019-06-17","case_no":"2019-20653","penalty":"Vacation days (15 days)","charges":[{"desc":"Carried his off-duty firearm in an unauthorized clip-on holster.","disposition":"Guilty"},{"desc":"Failed to properly safeguard his off-duty firearm resulting in its loss.","disposition":"Guilty"},{"desc":"Failed to timely notify the Department about the loss of his off-duty firearm.","disposition":"Guilty"}]}],"documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/21021297-calabrese-4a5003ed65ec65349f816800d3f1d2e54e2b3cc5","type":"brady-giglio"}],"image":"https://www.50-a.org/images/officer/V2QM-joseph-calabrese.jpg","payroll":{"salary":"105606","regular":"105305","overtime":"75661","other":"22590","total":"203556"},"id":"V2QM","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/V2QM"}
