No dough for ‘false arrest’

-

A $2 million lawsuit filed by a Queens man who was dubbed “Carlos the Booty Grabber” was tossed out Friday by a Brooklyn judge who didn’t buy his claims that he was falsely arrested.

Alan Radin sued the city in 2014 after getting cuffed the year before on charges he groped two women near St. John’s University.

Radin, 35, was cleared of forcible touching and harassment but said his life had been ruined over the raps — and the moniker he was given in news reports.

But Brooklyn federal Judge Nina Gershon ruled that cops had probable cause to arrest Radin because he was positively identified by the victims.
