Loudmouth and former cocaine trafficker is basically peeved that the YMCA revoked his membership and doesn't like it that they called the cops on his ass.
James Bishop, charged on Jan. 11, 2011 with trespassing at the Scarborough YMCA and assaulting two police officers during the arrest, is now suing police and the YMCA, alleging he was the one assaulted while playing basketball with his son, then 11, and that a “civil dispute” over the status of his YMCA membership never should have resulted in an arrest.
In a statement of claim filed in late June, Bishop, 43, and his family are seeking $2.3 million in damages and name eight officers and an unnamed ninth as defendants, as well as the YMCA and Toronto Police Services Board.
