Pero Antic filed a lawsuit against NYPD: They will now be held responsible
Under Antic's notice of claim, filed last year, $25 million was set as the maximum Antic can recover
As reported by ESPN, Former Atlanta Hawks center Pero Antic on Friday filed a civil suit against the New York Police Department, and Hawks forward Thabo Sefolosha will file suit this week, a source close to the proceedings said.
False arrest, unlawful imprisonment, assault, battery, negligence, civil rights violations and malicious prosecution were listed as the claims in Antic's complaint. Under Antic's notice of claim, filed last year, $25 million was set as the maximum Antic can recover.
"The NYPD has all but conceded that they falsely and improperly arrested Pero Antic," Alex Spiro, Antic's attorney, said. "They will now be held responsible."
