Brooklyn Man Suing NYPD After Violent Wrongful Arrest That Was Caught on Camera

Nearly seven months after two New York City detectives were caught on camera violently arresting the wrong man, that Brooklyn man is now suing.

Timothy Brown was buying wine after work back in April when two NYPD detectives mistook him for someone connected to a drug deal. The NYPD later confirmed Brown was the wrong man. Brown says he's still living with the consequences. "It's unexplainable. I'm paranoid. I hear certain noises, it frightens me. I'm scared at times," he said. Now, he's suing the city, the detectives and their supervisors. More on this from CBS News.
