A black former federal safety investigator who was shot with a stun gun, attacked by a Lynwood police K9 and arrested last year after being accused of urinating on the side of a road is suing the village and two of its officers for excessive force and false arrest.
Marcus Mosley, a 48-year-old Indiana resident, claims in a 12-count federal lawsuit filed last week that a white Lynwood police officer concocted a bogus story about him urinating on the side of Glenwood Dyer Road as a pretext to harass him despite his having committed no crime or unlawful act.
