Original Complaint,
Amended Complaint
Description: Officers approached Plaintiff in a deli, asked for ID, told him there was a warrant for his arrest, handcuffed him, and brought him to the 90th Precinct, where he was told there was no warrant for his arrest. Instead, there was an i-card from the 79th Precinct. Defendant Officer Tischler told Plaintiff that he was identified as a witness to a shooting and Plaintiff invoked his right to counsel. Plaintiff was then kept at the precinct overnight, brought to Central Booking, and then released without arraignment because the DA declined to prosecute the case.
