It’s safer to drive while Christian in this Indiana town.
Wendy Pyle filed a federal lawsuit Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Indianapolis claiming trooper Brian Hamilton violated her civil rights by asking her what church she attended and whether she was saved during a traffic stop in January.
Pyle is represented by the American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana, The Herald Bulletin reported.
During the traffic stop, Hamilton gave Pyle a warning ticket for speeding and invited her to his church, according to the lawsuit.
“In order to hopefully end these inquiries, Ms. Pyle indicated that she did attend a church and that she was saved,” the lawsuit states.
