2:28Now PlayingA man is suing the officer facing murder charges in the death of Rayshard Brooks for injuries sustained during an arrest.
Charles Johnson is seeking $1 million.
Johnson was stopped by officer Garrett Rolfe for a DUI just a month before Brooks' death.
The suit claims during the stop, Rolfe broke Johnson's collar bone among inflicting other minor injuries, causing him to undergo two surgeries to repair his shoulder, and lose over $200,000 in income and medical expenses.
Johnson says he did not do anything that would cause Rolfe to use force against him.
Rolfe claims Johnson resisted arrest.
Bodycam and dashcam video are "not available for release at this time pending an open investigation and litigation."
Rolfe was fired after the death of Brooks last May but was reinstated this month due to the city not properly following protocols protecting officers from being fired.
