A North Myrtle Beach High School graduate filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the city and three police officers after she said she was wrongfully detained.
La’Nisha Hemingway, 18, was driving to meet friends on May 3 when North Myrtle Beach Police Dept. (NMBPD) officers pulled her over, removed her from her car, and “forced her to walk backwards at gunpoint and then handcuffed her,” according to a release from Bailey Law Firm.
