Further details on conclusions.
On October 18, 2016 at 1:40 p.m, [redacted] was waiting to enter his residence at [redacted] in the Bronx, when he was approached by Sgt. Michael Bletcher, PO Nicholas Rios, PO Matthew Mozdziak and PO Juan Candelario of PSA 5. Sgt. Bletcher, whose recognition of [redacted] from a web series called [redacted] partially factored into the stop, informed [redacted] he was being stopped for blocking the doorway (Allegation A). Shortly thereafter, PO Rios frisked [redacted] (Allegation B). [redacted] was instructed to remove his backpack, which was given to PO Rios. PO Candelario then began to frisk [redacted] (Allegation C) and search through his pockets, pulling out his wallet and ID (Allegation D). During this time, PO Rios frisked and then searched through [redacted] backpack (Allegations E and F). [redacted] ID showed that he lived in the building so the officers let him go. [redacted] then asked the officers for their shield numbers; they refused (Allegations G, H, I and J). Read report for details.
