A police recruit in Denver is taking legal action after a training incident at the police academy led to the amputation of both of his legs. The recruit, Victor Moses, alleges that during a training exercise known as 'fight day,' he lost consciousness and collapsed multiple times, ultimately resulting in serious injuries.
The lawsuit claims that despite warning signs and medical conditions that put Moses at risk, he was pressured to continue the training by aggressive officers. Paramedics on the scene reportedly cleared Moses to continue, a decision the lawsuit alleges was made to support the police rather than prioritize his well-being.
