Journalist Pedro Rivera has filed a lawsuit alleging the Hartford police violated his First Amendment rights by questioning his use of a drone to record images of a car wreck, the Associated Press reports. Rivera claims that he was told to leave the area and that his TV-station employer was told he had interfered with a police investigation. At the time, Rivera was not working for WFSB-TV but is on call for them. Rivera also alleges violations of his Fourth Amendment rights. The complaint can be accessed here.
