Police allegedly yanked the woman from the car, 'taunted her, piled on top of her and stomped on her stomach leaving a shoe mark,' according to the court filing.
A woman named Emerald Black is suing the Californian city of San Leandro after an alleged June 7, 2019 attack by police officers that she claims caused her to miscarry. Her attorneys filed a lawsuit against the city and its police on Monday.
After the exam, Black, still dressed in"hospital clothing," was a passenger in a car driven by her fiancée. When police pulled her fiancée over for having expired registration tags, Black informed officers she was pregnant and she was asked to remain in the car when police talked with her fiancée outside of the car.
The attack caused Black to miscarry, she says. Now she's suing for physical injuries, embarrassment, humiliation and emotional distress both from the incident and loss of her child.The lawsuit alleges that police violated Black's constitutional rights under the Fourth Amendment which prohibit excessive force and unlawful seizure since Black was allegedly unarmed, noncombative and had committed no crimes.
