Because the record is devoid of any competent evidence that a Metropolitan Dade County policy or practice was responsible for the alleged constitutional violation, the verdict in favor of the plaintiff for $900,000 cannot stand. Accordingly, we reverse the $900,000 award and the assessment of attorney’s fees against Metropolitan Dade County. We affirm the directed verdict in favor of Metropolitan Dade County on the false arrest claim.

Affirmed in part; reversed in part.
