The family of a man who died after he was hit by a Taser multiple times during a struggle with LAPD officers has filed a new wrongful death lawsuit against the city.
The family of a man who died after he was hit by a Taser multiple times during a struggle with Los Angeles police officers has filed a new lawsuit against the city.
Police said Anderson was arrested in January for felony hit-and-run after causing a traffic accident then trying to get into another person's car. Body worn camera video showed Anderson running through traffic after the accident. The suit seeks unspecified damages, although attorneys said they would ask for damages of $100 million. The family had earlier filed a required damages claim against the city seeking $50 million, but it was rejected.
"It matters not whether there was cocaine in his system because the actions of the officers were wrong," said L.A. attorney Carl Douglas, who led a press conference Monday afternoon alongside famed national civil rights attorney Ben Crump and Anderson's family.
