A Lawsuit Unleashed: NYPD Chief Takes Action Against Councilwoman Following Biting Incident

In a rather unusual twist in the world of urban politics, Frank DiGiacomo, deputy chief of Patrol Brooklyn South, has initiated legal proceedings against New York City Councilwoman Susan Zhuang. This lawsuit comes hot on the heels of the dismissal of criminal charges against her for an incident that occurred during a protest in July.

The protest, dubbed “Residents Against Homeless Shelters,” unfolded in Gravesend, where demonstrators voiced their discontent over the impending construction of a shelter intended to accommodate 150 homeless men. Amidst the chaos, Zhuang allegedly resorted to biting DiGiacomo in a bid to thwart his attempts to arrest another protester who was frantically pushing against police barricades.

Eyewitnesses, including camera-wielding bystanders, captured the peculiar moment, turning a heated political protest into an unexpected episode of urban drama.

The bite left its mark—quite literally—as it broke the skin, resulting in cuts and bruises on DiGiacomo’s arm. This led to medical intervention, requiring him to receive an “anti-viral cocktail” alongside a tetanus shot, as one does after being bitten in the line of duty.

As reported by the New York Post, prior to the charges being dropped, Zhuang and DiGiacomo participated in a “restorative justice” meeting, a modern approach that aims to foster dialogue and accountability. The Brooklyn District Attorney’s office described this face-to-face as a step towards healing, stating that the decision to dismiss the charges was “based on the wishes of the victim and the defendant’s willingness to make amends.”

“This case was resolved through a restorative justice process that created space for dialogue, accountability, and healing,” said Brooklyn DA spokesman Oren Yaniv, perhaps with a hint of optimism.

However, in a move that might surprise those who believed in the power of restorative justice, DiGiacomo is not letting bygones be bygones. He has proceeded with the lawsuit, claiming negligence on Zhuang’s part, alleging he has been “permanently injured” and has suffered significant “trauma and distress” as a result of her actions, according to court records.

This case underscores a fascinating intersection of law enforcement, community activism, and the sometimes absurd lengths to which political disagreements can escalate. As the legal proceedings unfold, one cannot help but wonder: in a city with as many issues as New York, is this really the best use of its legal resources? Only time will tell, but for now, the biting incident has certainly bitten off more than it can chew.
