“The New York City Police Department (NYPD) is being sued by a woman who says that officers violated her civil rights when they pepper-sprayed her entire family — including a 2-year-old child and a 5-month-old baby. Marilyn Taylor accuses Officers Maripily Clase, Suranjit Dey and Jermaine Hodge of overacting when they saw her pushing the stroller through a service entrance instead of going through the subway turnstile. ‘The pepper-spray caused the children to scream out and choked the two-year old, who went into fits of vomiting,’ the lawsuit says. ‘Ms. Taylor was then placed in handcuffs as the minor children cried in fear and pain.'”
