Nurse sues Chicago cop who arrested her

September 21, 2009 10:03 AM | 43 Comments

An Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center nurse has filed a civil lawsuit against a Chicago police officer and the city of Chicago, claiming the officer arrested her for wanting to consult with a supervisor before collecting a blood sample from a suspected drunken driver.

Lisa Hofstra was the nurse in charge of the emergency room at Illinois Masonic about 4 a.m. on Aug. 1 when she said an officer named Rodriguez asked her to take blood samples from a man to determine his blood-alcohol level, according to a lawsuit filed in federal court. Hofstra allegedly told the officer the man had to become a patient first and she wanted to consult with her supervisor.

 

The officer cuffed her and placed her in the back of a squad car, according to the lawsuit.

The lawsuit claims Rodriguez, who is not fully named in the complaint, used excessive force by placing the handcuffs on Hofstra too tightly and arrested her without probable cause.

Hofstra is seeking an unspecified amount of damages.
