Lawsuit Claims Police Shot an African American Man in the Back with a Stun Gun
You would think a person would be able to just sit and relax on the curbside of a road without having to worry about physical harm befalling them, but that’s not always the case. For example, last week a man in Pennsylvania was “sitting on a curb when an officer fired a stun gun at his back.” Since the incident, the African American man, Sean Williams, has filed a federal lawsuit arguing “his constitutional rights were violated.” The lawsuit itself was filed in U.S. District Court “against the officer and the City of Lancaster, claiming police used excessive force, denied him medical care and racially profiled him.”
