POLITICAL VIOLENCE AROUND THE WORLD

             1. Title of the story: 'FAMILY 'BASHH'.
             Rafael Miranda and his three teenage children (a girl and two win boys) has filed a lawsuit for being wrongfully arrested and violently handled by police for allegedly arguing and yelling at an off duty police officer.
             Miranda was picking up his two sons from catholic school. The incident erupted when Ramon Miranda and the off duty police officer clashed as they attempted to negotiate a lane closure near the school. Miranda yelled to the other driver in Spanish, 'You need to learn how to drive'.
             Ramon Miranda claims that the officer shouted obscenities back, and then blocked the Miranda's path by moving his vehicle alongside a parked NYPD patrol car.
             As the off duty officer spoke to the uniformed cops, Miranda sent one of his son's to investigate. The suit claims the son was quickly surrounded by cops, handcuffed and held face-down on the hood of the off duty officer's town car. Miranda and his other son rushed out of their car and also manhandled and arrested, according to the suit.
             The lawsuit alleges Miranda and his sons, who were in their school uniforms, were put in a choke holds with the father and one son thrown across the hood of the Town Car by several cops. Photos taken by Miranda's daughter Sarah support the allegations and even suggest cops may have used arm twisting holds outlawed by the NYPD.
             Sarah alleges she was hit by cops and arrested when they spotted her snapping the incident with a disposable camera she had hurriedly purchased from a nearby store. Medical records show she received a cut above his eye.
             All four members of the Miranda family were charged in the incident, police records show, but charges against the boys have since been dropped.
             Miranda and his daughter still face charges they interfered with cops and resisted arrest.
