Inmate Sues Man He’s Convicted of Burglarizing

August 2, 2010

A Florida inmate is suing the man he's convicted of burglarizing, claiming he was roughed up during a citizen's arrest. After he allegedly stole a bicycle locked inside a van, Michael Dupree was apprehended by the owner and two others, who Dupree says pointed a gun at him, handcuffed him and kneed him in the back. Dupree is seeking $500,000 for disabilities and distress suffered during the takedown.
