The city of San Francisco, its police department and several others were named in a lawsuit over the arrests that happened during the 2023 Dolores Park Hill Bomb.

The four teenaged plaintiffs in this lawsuit were among the more than 100 people arrested this summer during the Hill Bomb.

Most of the people arrested by police that day were children, and a lawsuit claims many of those children weren’t even participants in the unsanctioned event.
