A Black woman who was pulled from her car and beaten by Philadelphia police during a protest last year is suing a police union for posting what she calls a misleading photo of her “terrified” toddler on social media, attorneys for the woman said.
Officials with the police union did not immediately respond to a request for comment from NBC News.
The complaint accused the police union of portraying Young’s son as a “neglected and abandoned child” in order to “promote its own political propaganda” of police as the child’s savior and defenders of order. The union’s social media followers were outraged and demanded authorities take Young’s child from her, according to the complaint.
