Incident date:
07/20/2013
Location:
3600 W. 5th Ave.
Allegations:
Officers Nunez, Peete, Diaz, Lee and Graney and Sergeant Griffin grabbed Williams and began to pat her down. When Williams asked why she was being stopped and searched, the officers bent her arms, hands and fingers behind her back and handcuffed her. The officers put Williams in the back of the squad car without a seatbelt, which caused her to be thrown around the car. She was taken to a police station and charged. These charges were later dropped.
