Man hit by Police Billed for Damages

The city of New York wants Jesse Zorski to pay for the damages done to a police car that ran into him. The car hit his leg then he was struck by the car's side-view mirror and he was taken to an area hospital. An NYPD now says the bill should not have been sent. Not only did he get a $1200 bill for medical treatment, but a notice from a law firm representing the city that he owed $1028.08 to cover the cost of repairs to the patrol car. Zorski says he had the right of way though police dispute that. Zorski works as a tailor in the fashion district of Manhattan and wears a hearing aid because of a childhood ailment. Zorski says his hearing loss did not have anything to do with the accident.
