California man charged with hitting Uber driver sues driver
(AP) — A Southern California man captured on video attacking an Uber driver has sued the driver for $5 million, claiming the video was recorded without his consent, a newspaper reported Saturday.
According to the newspaper, Golden says he was intoxicated and began to "fear for his safety and well-being" when the driver pulled over to "kick" him out of the car in an unfamiliar location.
The lawsuit claims invasion of privacy, infliction of emotional distress and assault and battery.
