Raiders safety Nate Allen has sued the city of Fort Myers, Fla., after he was unlawfully detained by police there in 2015.

According to NBC2, Allen is also suing former Fort Myers Police Chief Douglas Baker as well as a detective and a police officer involved in the case.

Allen, who was then playing for the Eagles, was detained by police as the investigated a report of indecent exposure. But he was later cleared by video evidence, phone records and social media postings which made it clear he wasn’t who the cops were looking for.

Allen told NBC2 after he was cleared of the charges that he “wanted to show people with hard evidence that this is literally impossible and it 300 percent did not happen. . . .

“There still needs to be a lot brought to the table. . . . Because of how my civil rights were violated.”

Police officers involved in the case have already been punished and the department has apologized, which seemingly strengthens Allen’s case.
