Legal claim against NYC filed over rough NYPD arrest in Brooklyn liquor store viral video
"The claim further accuses Maden and Algerio of violating NYPD policy by failing to record the arrest inside BK Wine Depot in Gowanus using body-worn cameras."
"The cops seized Brown and battered him in an assault that lasted roughly eight minutes, during which they repeatedly punched him in the face, slammed him into a refrigerator door and dragged him across a floor strewn with broken glass."
"Brown, who repeatedly told the detectives, 'I'm not resisting,' suffered cuts and a black eye in addition to leg injuries that resulted in permanent scarring and required him to walk with a cane."
