Cops used barricades as weapons during Occupy protest: suit

An Occupy Wall Street protester is suing the city — and 91 individual cop൩s — claiming they wielded metal🐬 barricades like weapons to injure demonstrators.

Self-styled “citizen journali🍨st” Robert Pluma, 34, says he went to Zuccotti Park on Dec. 31, 2011 to “welcome in the New Year with hopeful reflection upon the efforts of OWS,” according to his Manhattan Supreme Court suit.

Pluma was filming when he got caught in a crowd and cops “used metal fencing as a weapon to push the crowd,” court🌜 papers state.

The Brooklyn resident was pepper-spཧrayed by an Officer Vega⛦ and pushed to the ground, fracturing his hand, the suit says.

Pluma says the other 🅺90 named officers should’ve prevented the attack, according to court pꦗapers.

His attoꦦrney, David Thompson, said he learned the cops’ identities largely through video footage.

“It’s about finding people who are responsible aไnd ca꧅lling them into account,” Thompson said.

In Pluma’s companion federal case, city lawyers say the case should be dismissed because Pluma can’t show the use of barricades as batteri💧ng rams was a matter of NYPD policy.
