Victor Moses, a 29-year-old Black police recruit from the Denver Police Academy, is suing the department and a Denver-based medical facility for the severe injuries he allegedly sustained during a “barbaric hazing ritual” known as “Fight Day.”
Filed in the District Court of Denver on July 30, the lawsuit claims that Moses was forced to amputate both legs following the brutal event, which involves scenario-based drills on arrest techniques, resistance control, self-defense, and emergency response.
