An 18-year-old college student was filming protests outside an immigration detention center in Los Angeles last month when an officer fired a projectile into his face, destroying his right eye and fracturing the bones in the socket.
Tucker Collins, whose damaged eye had to be surgically removed, has filed a federal civil rights complaint against Donald Trump’s administration, which faces an avalanche of lawsuits accusing federal agents of unconstitutional use of force after violent clashes with demonstrators across the country.
