In the 2016 incident involving Mr. Lankford, Officer Alvarez arrived at the scene and struck Lankford with a baton approximately three or four times on the shin while officers were yelling commands. This action was part of a lawsuit alleging excessive force. Alvarez’s use of force was documented in court records, and he admitted to the baton strikes during the proceedings.
