DENVER — A man who was body-slammed by an off-duty Denver Police Department officer while celebrating the Denver Nuggets championship in 2023 filed a lawsuit Wednesday — exactly one year after the incident.
Cell phone video captured the moment Smith was body-slammed by then-Denver Police Officer Adam Glasby. "It scared me what happened to me. I didn’t want to go to sleep. I didn’t think I was going to wake up," said Smith. "If it hadn’t been for a civilian with a cell phone, this probably would’ve never come to light," said Smith's attorney, Mari Newman with Newman|McNulty, LLC."No matter who he was working for, it was excessive force. The fact that he was in his Denver uniform working as a security guard means Denver is responsible, Hayter’s Bar and Officer Glasby. And that means all three need to be held responsible.
