Man arrested for taping police sues city, officers
February 2, 2010
The American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts filed a civil rights lawsuit yesterday against the City of Boston and three Boston police officers on behalf of a man who was arrested for video recording police officers making an arrest near Boston Common in 2007.
Simon Glick, 33, has said he was walking on Tremont Street on Oct. 1, 2007, when he saw three police officers making an arrest. He heard another man apparently yelling, “You are hurting him, stop.’’ Glick, thinking that police might have been using excessive force, pulled out his cellphone and began to record the arrest.
