Adrian Cruz sued Los Angeles County Thursday, alleging he was wrongfully battered by sheriff's deputies when he found himself incidentally in the middle of a wild televised chase that spanned Orange and Los Angeles counties.
The chase, which reached speeds of nearly 100 mph, wound through northern Orange County to Whittier, where Anchondo dumped the broken-down van and ran into a home in Whittier, where he grabbed keys and stole a work truck, prosecutors said.
Cruz had been waiting for the signal to turn green so he could proceed south on Hacienda Boulevard when his vehicle was hit head-on by the truck, which in turn was rammed by a deputy's patrol car, causing an additional impact on Cruz's vehicle, the suit states. “Rather than providing any assistance, protection or guidance to the plaintiffs ... Doe deputies suddenly tackled and violently began to punch plaintiff Adrian Cruz in his head while simultaneously grabbing his head and smashing it to the ground,” the suit states.
“Thankfully, Amanda Sainz and were able to get out of their vehicle and ran to safety ... while Doe deputies continued to relentlessly punch and use excessive force upon Adrian Cruz, the suit states.
