Alexander Morris, the lead singer of the Motown group The Four Tops, has filed a federal lawsuit against a Michigan hospital and two staff members. Morris alleges that during an emergency room visit for cardiac distress, hospital staff treated him as if he were mentally ill and restrained him against his will. He claims that when he identified himself as a member of The Four Tops, staff did not believe him and ordered a psychiatric evaluation. The lawsuit includes allegations of racial discrimination, with Morris asserting that the staff's actions were influenced by his race. Morris further accuses the hospital staff of racism and profiling.
