NYC pays $75K settlement to Manhattan couple arrested for dancing in subway

“Stern, a dentist, and Hess, a film prop master, had just left Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Midsummer Night’s Swing when they encountered a steel-drum player on a nearly empty platform in the Columbus Circle subway station and began to boogie. Two cops told them their happy feet weren’t allowed and hauled them off after Stern could produce only a credit card, which did bear a picture of her, as identification.  Stern said she and Hess were happy with the settlement but believes that her arrest, and the legal case that ensued, could have been avoided.”
