Cancer Institute, was returning
home from work, when she got off
the bus and began live-streaming
on her phone the images of po-
lice officers arresting a man near
downtown Gresham. According to
reports, an officer seized Medina’s
phone, twisted her arm and she was
detained.
“That day I felt afraid,’’ Medina
said.”I don’t think a bystander should
ever feel afraid of police ... and I also
felt violated.” As part of the settle-
ment Medina’s $85,000 legal fees
will be paid, Portland and Gresham
officers will adopt new police poli-
cies and training concerning citizen’s
rights to film police activities.
