‘I think she’s out,’ deputy says after violent arrest

A woman who pulled off a road to change drivers during a trip with her father and three young children was knocked unconscious and arrested by two Northern California sheriff's deputies, who then lied about the encounter to responding paramedics and on official reports, according to a federal lawsuit filed Wednesday.

A tear streams down the cheek of Nakia Porter during a news conference to announce the filing of a federal lawsuit she has brought against two Solano County Sheriff's deputies, in Sacramento, Calif., Wednesday, Aug. 18, 2021. The lawsuit stems from an incident where the deputies knocked Porter unconscious and arrested her after she had pulled off the road, near Dixon, Aug. 6, 2020, to change drivers when the deputies squad car pulled up behind and confronted Porter and her father and then later lied about the incident.
