Sen. Paul files civil suit against BoucherBowling Green Daily News, Jun 25, 2018
U.S. Sen. Rand Paul of Bowling Green has filed a lawsuit against the neighbor who admitted to assaulting him in front of his house.
In the civil complaint, filed Friday in Warren Circuit Court, the Republican senator seeks an unspecified amount of compensatory and punitive damages from Rene Boucher for "physical pain and mental suffering" resulting from Boucher's tackle of Paul as the senator was mowing his yard Nov. 3 in the Rivergreen subdivision in Bowling Green.
Paul sustained multiple rib fractures and dealt with recurrent pneumonia in the aftermath of the incident.
Boucher was arrested Nov. 3 by Kentucky State Police on a misdemeanor charge of fourth-degree assault.
