A police recruit in Denver is taking legal action after a training incident led to the amputation of both his legs. The recruit, Victor Moses, alleges that during a training session at the police academy, he lost consciousness and collapsed multiple times, ultimately resulting in the amputation of his legs.
The incident occurred during a 'fight day' training session, where Moses was allegedly pressured to continue despite showing signs of distress. Paramedics on-site cleared him to continue training, despite his medical conditions, including the sickle cell trait and low blood pressure.
