My question involves civil rights in the State of: N.Y. I was watching a band with my wife, two other couples and the wife of one of the band players, when one of the men in the group was blindsided by a punch. I proceeded to restrain the individual during which we fell to the floor. The bouncers quickly escorted me and the other male who was hit outside, but not the one who threw the punch.
Our wives exited with us and were calling the police when the male who was assaulted went to talk to the bouncers about this situation in the bar's vestibule area. He then cried out that he couldn't see due to pepper spray being administered. They pushed him to the ground and told him to leave, since l was right there, I ran over to the vestibule area to pick him up and drag him outside. During which one of the bouncers yelled something, I looked up, saw the one bouncer point at me, while the other bent down and sprayed me in the face.
When the police arrived they would not let the assaulted male press charges. When I asked them to review any video, they flat out refused, after several attempts to get them to view the video, (which the camera was clearly visible in the vestibule), I asked to file an incident report, which their response was to arrest me.
Have I been let down by the system? Does one drink negate your civil rights?
