Plaintiff:
Ronald Davis Jr.
Incident date:
12/18/2013
Location:
7345 N. Washtenaw Ave.
Allegations:
Davis was walking his dog in Rogers Park when the dog sat down near Officer Jenkins, who was dressed in plainclothes and standing behind his van. Davis went to get the dog and Jenkins screamed at him and began pushing him, without announcing that he was a police officer. Davis asked Jenkins who he was and the officer responded, "I'll show you who I am" and pointed his gun at Davis' chest. Jenkins called for more officers and recorded video of Davis and his dog with his cellphone. When other officers arrived, Jenkins told them Davis had “come at him” aggressively with closed fists. Davis was arrested and charged with assault but was later found not guilty.
