twitterMan brings lawsuit against NDI
Monday, July 27, 1998 | 9:06 a.m.
In a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Reno, John Longshore alleges the multi-jurisdictional task force violated his constitutional rights.
It names sheriffs Ron Pierini of Douglas County, Rod Banister of Carson City and Sid Smith of Lyon County.
Longshore, 42, was arrested April 30, 1997, for possession of marijuana and methamphetamine at his Carson City home, for trafficking and for battery on a peace officer.
He claims the officers did not have a search warrant or probable cause to search the residence.
When the officers asked permission to search the premises, he turned them down and was going back inside when one officer grabbed him by the arm and another splashed him with pepper spray, Longshore said.
Longshore was taken to Carson City jail, where he was held in lieu of $50,000 bail.
In December 1997, Carson City District Court Michael Fondi ordered the evidence suppressed and Longshore released, according to the lawsuit.
