DETROIT -- An MGM Grand Detroit casino patron is suing after he claims he was allegedly beaten by police for no reason.  Surveillance video catches the events.

NBC25’s sister station, WDIV-TV, reports 38-year-old Patrick Boissan was accused of inappropriately touching a waitress at the casino on July 30th.  He then says a police officer got up into his face, he raised his arm to guard himself, and was then beaten by the officer.  His attorney tells WDIV that Boissan suffered a broken nose and broken ribs during the fight.

Boisson was charged with assaulting a police officer and fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct.

Now, though, Boisson is fighting back.  WDIV-TV reports he has filed a federal lawsuit against officers Arthur Dudal and Jose Ortiz.
