"A Brooklyn man who says he was falsely arrested by police who planted a gun on him is suing the city and the NYPD.
Jeffery Herring, 53, was cleared last week on the weapons rap when prosecutors failed to produce a confidential police informant, despite a judge’s order that the witness be brought to court.
“Despite Mr. Herring’s innocence, the defendants fabricated and falsified evidence to have him arrested and prosecuted,” states the lawsuit, which was being filed in Brooklyn federal court Monday by lawyer Joseph Indusi."
