A video of Officer Dages' arrest of a 23-year-old Black man sparked protests in La Mesa. The former officer was fired by the department and later charged with a felony count of filing a false police report, though an El Cajon jury acquitted him last year.
Dages' arrest of 23-year-old Amaurie Johnson sparked protests in the East County city when a video of the arrest went viral. The former officer was fired by the department and later charged with a felony count of filing a false police report, though an El Cajon jury acquitted him last year.
Dages was accused of lying in his report when he wrote that he saw Johnson smoking, lacking a trolley fare while being in a"fare-paid zone," and then becoming combative once their encounter escalated into an argument on May 27, 2020.
