Off-Duty Cop Is Suing The Game For $12 Million

The off-duty cop whom The Game punched and threatened during a basketball game is now seeking a lot of money.

Although The Game turned himself in over the punch he threw at an off-duty cop during a March basketball game, it looks like things are far from over. The West Coast rapper was booked earlier this week and already posted his bail of $50,000-- but the cop he punched wants him to shell out a lot more.

The off-duty cop, name Onyebuchi Awaji, filed a $12 million lawsuit against the rapper. Does that sound about right? As we first reported, The Game got into a fight with Awaji during a Pro-Am basketball game in L.A., and the heated argument led to The Game punching the fellow player and threatening to kill him.

Awaji is now seeking a big pay day to help remedy his sufferings (physical, emotional, and financial). According to court documents, the breakdown is as follows:

Pain and suffering: $1,000,000
Emotional distress: $1,000,000
Medical expenses (to date): $50,000
Medical expenses (future): $100,000
Punitive damages: $10 million

The lawsuit was actually filed in April (a month after the incident), but Game has yet to respond. The rapper is currently awaiting trail.

 A Texas Cop Listening To Drake Tases 76-Year-Old Man 

It’s all fun and games until someone pulls out a taser.

In the beginning of the video, a 23-year-old Texas police officer named Nathaniel Robinson is seen bumping to Drake’s hit single “Underground Kings” off of the OVO head honcho’s sophomore album Take Care. As the video progresses, Robinson is seen through the dashboard video footage pulling over 76-year-old Pete Vasquez for unknown reasons. Unfortunately, things escalated extremely quickly between the two men.

Despite the conversation being drowned out by Drake’s music, viewers can see Vasquez attempting to explain to officer Robinson that his dealer plates made his car exempt from inspection, but the Texas cop wasn’t buying it. Robinson is seen grabbing Vasquez and slamming him on the hood of the police car. Robinson struggles to fully constrain the elderly man.

Ultimately, officer Robinson shot Vasquez twice with a taser gun. The unexpected taser attack caused Vasquez to go to the hospital where he spent two hours in police custody to recount the situation. Once Vasquez was released, the chief police officer visited his home to apologize. Robinson is reportedly under investigation.

Just yesterday (Dec. 15), a Harvard graduate was pulled over because he playing N.W.A’s “Fuck tha Police.” Thoughts?
