A University of Toronto student and his mother are suing three Toronto police officers alongside the Toronto Police Services Board and seeking damages of just under $3 million, alleging that Hasani O'Gilvie was unlawfully and violently detained back in the summer of 2021.Police disciplinary documents refer to the incident as a case of "mistaken identity" but a lawyer representing the family says it's instead a case of someone being assaulted for "walking while Black," after O'Gilvie was allegedly forced to the ground with a knee on his neck and repeatedly shocked with a Taser.
