URBANA, Ill. (WCIA) — A Champaign man is suing a police officer in federal court accusing the officer of forcing his way into a home.

The lawsuit filed Tuesday states, in October, 24-year old Davonte Wright pulled into the driveway of a friend’s home. He says Officer Tyler Darling parked behind him and told him to get back in his car.

Wright says he walked into the friend’s home and Darling forced his way in behind him, hit him in the face, pushed him against a wall and handcuffed him.

The lawsuit states Wright was arrested without probable cause and falsely charged with resisting a peace officer.
