Canberra Raiders star Curtis Scott will sue police in a bid to secure a six-figure payout over his infamous Australia Day 2020 arrest. Scott was cleared of seven charges in relation to an incident in which he was found by police intoxicated and asleep under a tree in Sydney’s Centennial Park after Australia Day celebrations earlier this year.

Police body camera footage shown in court confirmed that Scott was handcuffed, tasered and capsicum sprayed by officers, while he was asleep.
