A West Valley Police officer is being sued by a man who claims was slammed to the ground and injured unjustly by the officer. Ceasar Medina says he was driving to his girlfriend's house July 17 to meet her for breakfast. Medina says he was pulled over by the officer in West Valley, near where his girlfriend lives. He says that the officer claims he was resisting arrest during the stop and pulled him out of his vehicle and slammed him to the ground.
West Valley Police say they do not know about the lawsuit and cannot comment until they review the case.
Police say that Medina was pulled over for failure to stop at a stop sign and speeding.
Until West Valley Police have had a chance to review the case, FOX 13 has chosen not to release the identity of the officer involved.
