HOLD UP …
A Black man is suing two Nevada Police Departments after he was wrongfully arrested for a warrant describing a white man with the same name.
Yes, you heard that correctly. Shane Lee Brown spent six days in jail after law enforcement officers from Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department and the Henderson Police Department mixed him up with another man.
The Black Shane Lee Brown is 23 years old, 5 feet 7, and Black. The white man with the same name is described on the arrest warrant as being 49 years old, 5-feet-11 inches tall, with a “bushy white beard” and blue eyes.
The arresting officers failed to verify the person listed on the warrant properly. If they followed protocol, they would’ve noticed, the Shane Brown they were looking for had a conviction in 1994, two years before the plaintiff was born.
