Description
Douglas F. Brazda, a police officer with the Reno, Nevada Police Department (RPD), was severely injured on April 20, 1992, when he and other officers executed a search warrant. Defendants, Officer Michael Gent and Officer James Duncan, assigned him the task of kicking in the door to a second-floor apartment during the raid. Although he asked for a battering ram to assist him, Gent told him one was not available. When Brazda and another officer, Munns, kicked at the door, it would not open, and they fell backward, crashing through a wooden railing and falling fifteen feet to the pavement.
