Alycia Lane Attacks NY Cop


Alycia Lane: The Police Report

Here's a part of a deposition regarding Alycia Lane, who allegedly pulled a Jason Michaels Saturday night in New York City.

Deponent states that deponent was approaching an intoxicated male and directing said male to return to a Taxi when defendant placed a camera against deponent's face. Deponent observed officer grab defendant's arm (holding the camera) in an attempt to move it away from deponent's face. Deponent states that defendant said in substance to officer: I DON'T GIVE A FUCK WHO YOU ARE I AM A REPORTER YOU FUCKING DYKE. Deponent further states that deponent observed defendant strike officer about the face. Deponent states that defendant's strike caused officer to sustain two lacerations to officer's face and caused swelling."

That actually gives the reporter thing some context. It now reads more like: I'm taking photos in my capacity as a journalist, although I don't think "I am a reporter, you fucking dyke!" is the best way to express that statement.

The Daily News' Dan Gross, Regina Medina and Bob Cooney have some fun details, including: "A station source said Lane's iPhone was confiscated by cops as evidence." The New York Post says Alycia has always been saying "Fuck the police."

Lane, a Long Island native, is a former reporter and anchor for cable station News 12 in The Bronx and covered the 1999 shooting of Amadou Diallo, the unarmed immigrant killed by 40 police bulles.

Wait, isn't it 41? Either way, Lane's lawyer denies the charges, and Alycia was crying, so now we should all feel bad for her. Really.
