OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The head of security for world boxing champion Terence Crawford and two other people filed a federal lawsuit Monday against Omaha's police chief and more than a dozen officers for their conduct during a September traffic stop.
Crawford was stopped early Sept. 28 on suspicion of reckless driving hours after a parade was held in downtown Omaha to celebrate his victory over Canelo Alvarez two weeks earlier. Police ordered Crawford, bodyguard Qasim Shabazz and two other passengers out of the vehicle at gunpoint.
Crawford, who was ticketed and released, is not a plaintiff in the lawsuit, which was filed in U.S. District Court in Nebraska. A request for comment was left with the city attorney's office.
