RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) - A lawsuit alleging an illegal police search of a woman at the Sturgis motorcycle rally has been settled out of court.
Chery Lucero said her civil rights were violated at the 2006 rally when she was subjected to body searches after a vehicle stop and the discovery of drugs on a male passenger. The Colorado woman had sued the city of Sturgis, its police chief and two deputized police officers.
Terms of the settlement were not disclosed in a federal court filing dismissing the lawsuit.
