The lawsuit details last summer’s incident by alleging that after placing his hands down his own pants and “vigorously rubbing his genitalia,” Lemon “intensely pushed his fingers against Plaintiff’s face under Plaintiff’s nose, forcing Plaintiff’s head to thrust backward.” He allegedly further harassed the man, Dustin Hice, with aggressive sexual questions.
