In 1986, Officer Bevins, alongside Officer Lindman, detained James Peterson in a patrol car during a theft investigation. Peterson filed a lawsuit claiming this detention violated his Fourth Amendment rights. The court determined that the officers lacked probable cause, resulting in a $5,000 award to Peterson.
