4:40Now PlayingA civil rights lawsuit was filed last week on behalf of Brady Mistic, who was arrested after a traffic stop in September 2019.
According to the lawsuit, Mistic cannot read lips and can only vocalize a few words. When he tried to communicate with officers using sign language, the lawsuit says they put him in handcuffs.
The lawsuit names Officer Nicholas Hanning and Officer Ellie Summers, who were both involved in the arrest. It also names the City of Idaho Springs, and the Clear Creek County Board of Commissioners.
The lawsuit claims Hanning was unnecessarily forceful, and the two officers used a stun gun on Mistic twice.
The lawsuit also says Hanning broke his own ankle during the arrest. Mistic was charged with second-degree assault on a police officer and resisting arrest, charges that were later dismissed.
