Allegations:
Flores was in his home in the North Lawndale neighborhood when Officers Lackage and Fleming pounded at his door. Flores was wearing a T-shirt and pajama bottoms when he opened the door. The officers struck Flores repeatedly before handcuffing him. The officers took Flores, now wearing only the pajama bottoms, outside in the cold and snow. They threw him face down into the snow and continued to strike him even though he was handcuffed. Flores was taken to a police station, where an unknown officer tased him while he was still handcuffed. He was held overnight in a cell without a mattress and slept on a metal bench. Despite his obvious signs of injury, Flores did not receive medical attention until the following morning. Flores was charged with resisting/obstructing a police officer and held in jail for nine days. The charge was later dismissed.
