A Black man is suing a Winnipeg police officer and the city, alleging he was racially profiled by the officer who used excessive force for no legal reason while he was parked outside of a friend’s house.
Fabian Lincoln Junior Ross was driving a rented car on July 14 of that year when he parked behind a friend’s house in the alley connecting Brazier and Roch streets, between Johnson and Chalmers avenues, according to a statement of claim filed in Manitoba’s Court of Queen’s Bench of June 20, 2022.
