[UPDATE] HIV Positive Protester Says Cop Who Punched Him Should Get Tested (Christopher Robbins/Gothamist) [UPDATE BELOW] During the chaotic Occupy Wall Street march through the financial district this morning, we witnessed a protester on William Street get punched in the face by a police officer, seemingly without provocation. He says the officer hit him so hard his earring got knocked out, but he managed to escape arrest. We caught up with the protester later: his name is Felix Rivera-Pitre, and he told us what happened and how he got away. Rivera-Pitre, who is HIV positive and used to be a dancer, tells us he was walking a little bit in front of the police on William Street, and admits he "shot the cop a look." Asked how he escaped, Rivera-Pitre says, "The cops were pulling me by my feet and the crowd was pulling me by my hands, and I was suspended in the air. Rivera-Pitre said he was participating in march because "my housing has been affected by the economy." Occupy Wall Street’s “Victory” March Video from ANIMALnewyork.com on Vimeo.
May 12th 2012 [UPDATE] City Abandons NYPD White Shirt Who Sucker-Punched OWS Protester [UPDATE BELOW] Though many NYPD officers were recognizable players in the drama of Occupy Wall Street's struggle to peaceably assemble in Lower Manhattan—Winski, Hipster Cop, Albano, and who could forget the poetry of McNamara and DiPace?—two stand out as galvanizing the movement through their violent response to protesters. Deputy Inspector Anthony Bologna, who wantonly pepper-sprayed protesters in September 2011, and Deputy Inspector Johnny Cardona, who sucker punched a protester in front of a million flashing cameras. The NYPD disciplined Bologna, and refused to provide him with an attorney to defend the multiple lawsuits against him. Now, the Law Department has declined to defend Cardona. Cardona and the City are being sued by Felix Rivera-Pitre, the protester Cardona punched on the violent march through Lower Manhattan on October 14, 2011, shortly after Mayor Bloomberg announced that he wouldn't be kicking protesters out of Zuccotti Park after all (that would come later).
