NOTICE OF COMPLAINT
December 16, 2022
ICMS #: 2022-1133
On December 15, 2022, the OPO received an online complaint.
The complainant alleges: I was assulted at my job @
on
at
.
When i was attacked by two gentleman and they beat me by punching me in the
face and all over my head, face, and body, They also kicked my head and face, I was talking
to the 911 dispatch when two officers were walking down
and i asked them for
help and let the dispatcher know that i was hanging up because there were two officers
present. I explained to the officer who took my report that i was brutally assaulted by these
two men, who were still present at the time. I have about 10 witnesses who witnessed all
the attack. I am hurting and have an eye injury and bad head injuries where i was kicked in
the eye and head various times. The officer knowingly that i was hurt, did not arrest the
assailant because he said he was not present and could not arrest them because of this. I
thought that the Law was supposed to protect and serve? Protect from vicious assaults like
this one. I was very confused and question this enforcer. I do not feel safe in Austin if the
Police Department is not there to protect us from situations like this, where people think
they can assult a human being and get away with it. There is no real lesson learned if this
is the attitude of the Austin Police Dept. I will give you all witnesses information upon
requesting it. Thank you
This notice of complaint is a request for Internal Affairs to initiate an investigation to
determine if the employee conduct is within compliance of APD policy, Civil Service
Rules, and Municipal Civil Service Rules.
