Brooklyn Man Beaten in Wrongful Arrest Sues NYPD For $100 Million

The DA dismissed charges against Timothy Brown following the viral incident.

A man who was seen on video being beaten and wrongfully arrested by two NYPD officers at a liquor store in Brooklyn has filed a notice saying he plans to sue the department over the incident. Timothy Brown told reporters Tuesday that he felt "humiliated, disrespected and embarrassed" by the arrest and will never be the same after the April 14 incident. Brown, a home health aide and security guard, was buying wine at the liquor store after work when he was suddenly approached by two plainclothes detectives who allegedly seized him and attacked him as other customers looked on in shock, according to the notice of claim that he filed with the city. More on this from ABC 7 Eyewintess News.
