AUSTIN, TX — A police watchdog has filed suit against an Austin officer he accused of having violated his civil rights in a recent arrest, according to a published report.

Julian Reyes is suing Austin Police Department Officer Justin Berry, who arrested him in September 2015 at the Rally Against Police Brutality, Abuse, Racism and Bigotry rally staged at the state Capitol, the Austin American-Statesman reported.

Reyes was arrested and charged with obstruction of a highway, but later had the charge against him dropped. He still faces a pending charge of failure to obey, the newspaper reported.
