Further details on conclusions.
On December 23, 2016, at approximately 8:30 p.m., [redacted]'s motorcycle battery died and he walked his motorcycle up Prince Street in Brooklyn, hoping to get a boost at the nearby FDNY or NYPD stationhouses. PO Paul Kogan and PO Kevin Chow, both of the 84th Precinct, pulled up diagonally in front of [redacted] in their unmarked SUV, cutting him off (Allegations A and B). Immediately after PO Kogan exited the vehicle, he drew his gun and pointed it at [redacted] (Allegation C). [redacted] requested [redacted]. [redacted] replied, "I'd like to see your ID." [redacted] produced [redacted]'s identification, and gave it to PO Kogan. PO Kogan glanced at it, returned it to [redacted] and the officers walked toward the unmarked SUV. [redacted] said, "Wait a minute, you still have not told me who you are." PO Kogan reached his hand inside his jacket and pulled out a small shield that hung around his neck. PO Kogan's fingers were covering most of the shield, and [redacted] could not see it (Allegation D). The officers left in the unmarked SUV.
On December 28, 2016, at approximately 10:30 p.m., [redacted] went to the 84th Precinct stationhouse to file a complaint. He spoke with Sgt. Julio Acuria of the 84th Precinct.
