Allegations:
Kim Norton and other members of her family, including a minor, were sitting on her porch in the North Lawndale neighborhood when they were approached by an officer who had been searching for an individual. He was joined by two additional officers who declared that they needed to go into the home. One of the family members asked the officer if they had a search warrant, to which the officer replied “nigger, I don't need a search warrant!”. The officers proceeded to attack the family on the porch and around the porch area. Kim, LaChoya and L. Norton, the minor, were arrested to cover up for the beatings. The charges against the family members were later dismissed.
