Allegations:
Lyaazale was driving a taxi and talking to his pregnant wife on the phone when he was pulled over by the defendant officer, who was in plainclothes. While giving Lyaazale a ticket for talking on a cellphone while driving, the officer made insulting and suggestive comments about Lyaazale's wife. Then he returned to his vehicle, pulled it alongside Lyaazale's taxi, and an officer in the passenger seat threw a plastic water bottle at Lyaazale and they sped away. Lyaazale followed their unmarked squad car in an attempt to take down the license plate number while he called 911. The officers stopped their car again, got out, and approached Lyaazale's taxi. They tapped on his window with a Taser, yelled threats at him, and tried to get into his car. Later, they falsified reports of the stop in an attempt to conceal the time, location and officers involved in the incident.
