"Let go of his vest," the policewoman said.
"She also did not state she had an exemption for not wearing a face covering. "She then became physically aggressive and kicked a female officer to the upper body.A concerned male bystander can be heard questioning the officer's use of force in the video, saying "are you serious – for not having a mask?"Excuses rulebreakers give for breaching restrictions
However, she did not receive a fine for failing to wear a face covering because she later told police she had an exemption.The arrest has been referred to the Professional Standards Command for oversight.A police officer and a customer were allegedly assaulted by a maskless woman at a café in Melbourne's south-east this afternoon.
"The incident escalated into an assault and police were called," a Victoria Police spokesperson said.The 58-year-old Frankston woman was arrested at the scene and remains in custody assisting police with their enquiries.
Not Very Smart Policing
call ourselves a responsible society, that girl is true example of spoilt brat who deserves what she get,it is not a joke or option to preserve life COVID is real grow up people.Anyonesay the police are too strong hand needs to get a life and walk in a Policeman shoes for a day
That was not an arrest that was police brutality. Terrible he was strangling her. She was trying to breathe and protect herself. He should be arrested not her.
maybe she should have started with I have an exemption
Oh my God that's over the top
Satin living in human with a badge.
thal’ll learn ‘er
They state medical reasons you dont have to wear a mask how do those cock heads know if she does our doesnt have a callopsed lung our some other condition i can bearly wear the mask for 5 mins in a supermarket without almost pasing the fuck out and i have 3 other conditions
Fake news, all hired actors
Throw the book at her
Nazi Victoria
I dont see anything wrong with what police have done, unfortunately they r doing the good job! Becasuse of some people like this lady Victoria have to lockdown! She deserved it!
The worlds gone f**king mad
Well done to the police handling obviously a “difficult” situation in a calm manner.
Should have worn a mask!
She likes it rough lol
What ever!! Just humans being idiot humans. This is minor compared to animal abuse and that seems to be OK too.
Unnecessary use of force - bad policing.
Wtf Australia how embarrassing, are we really going to let this happen to this beautiful country, are we really going to let our freedom be taken away like this?
Well done to the police officers. Get this scum off the streets! They are doing it on purchase. Bunch of weed smokin' hippies. If these people don't want to cooperate, stop their centrelink payments, because I bet these losers are on benefits! Don't bite the hand that feeds you!
Deliberately resisting so police can be filmed.
Good
Abuse of power. Excessive force against instant woman. Where was this strict way when they let security people to sleep with quarantine women and let them out for shopping.
they are choking the girl ?
This girl is perpetuating violence against police by kicking them.
You are making a big deal about this lady. She is nothing but a PUNK and should be locked up in prison for not wearing a mask. People like her are stopping the full recovery of the COVID19.
Not good
Why it's so hard to wear a mask?
What happened before he just filmed the police officer I wonder. Never see any of the preludes.
I bet there is more to this story that we are seeing 🤔🤔🤔
Good on the police they are only do their jobs
Gooood !!
Did she not know what she was defiantly doing ?
BS! She cares for no one else’s respiratory system and now she cares for hers? 🤣 what a joke. I have a rare brain condition and I hyperventilate sometimes, and due to my hormonal issues I am now obese and it’s not easy to move like I used to, She can and I can still wear a mask
Looks like USA police. Very inhuman
Stay at home if you have an exemption.
What about the preceeding footage that shows her punching the police? I'd question the accuracy of your report suggesting she's being arrested for not wearing a mask when it seems likely the arrest stemmed from an assault. Concerned this footage seems taken out of context.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes
I thought the rules was suppose to be female to female arrest procedures ONLY.......
lady breaking the rules and fighting wow, no consideration for the lockdown in Melbourne
Victoria is an absolute joke! Lockdown because 7 elderly and already weak people died from Chinese poisoning. Then this! Embarrassing to see Australia play along with the plandemic so brilliantly
Just wonder what she did to cause this to happen prior before the showing of this footage..
Hey Australia looks like you’re police officers in Melbourne aren’t properly trained. This could of easily been avoided
Hey is this America!
I think police arresting ignorant people that don't take this COVID seriously and following the rules the government impose is perfectly fine! They need to learn a lesson
Shocking “Empowered government thugs” supported by lunatics shame shame shame shame ,,
The more that I look the police went over the top agreed youn girl should stay quiet and stop but still over the top
If I were a Melbourne police officer, I would resign my position. I don't know how these people can enforce such unnecessary and frighteningly draconian rules and look themselves in the mirror each morning.
Melbourne is a test-run for the UK. Next up will probably be Glasgow, then London. The Empire likes to test these things on its poorer criminal cousins first.
Completely unnecessary. Face masks have been shown to have little effectiveness at preventing virus transmission or infection. N95 masks are the only type that offer serious protection. Transmission of virus outdoors is negligible.
Good job officer! Doing what you have to do that not many can
Thank you Police for showing this imbasils why jaws are there , 9newsauspolicerocks
That was the most respectful take down I have ever seen. What a gentleman. Literally.
The woman is putting other people life at risk. How hard is it to wear a mask. What if she tests positive to COVID? The officer is risking his life to protect the society. Well done VictoriaPolice. Thank you for hard work.
The second officer is complicit in the first officers response, this is unacceptable treatment of another human being.
Moral of the story. Follow the law. If you don't, the do not resist arrest. Simple.
Under trained police and uninformed society meet
The officer is demonstrating nothing less than being severely untrained in how to respond to this poor girls sincere and understandable reaction of fear to being arrested and treated just as the police are trained to treat people.
That poor girl was obviously terrified! And the officer just stayed on protocol as he is obviously poorly trained in how to react to the sincere fear this girl is unnecessarily experiencing.
Crazy stuff, all for a mask
Dont need to worry about c19 that cop going to choke her to death
Well done Vic Police. The covid doesn’t discriminate apparently neither should these brave cops risking their lives. This 5’1 female looks like a born killer. Drug dealers, thieves, pedophilies walking around Melbourne who cares. The real killers are non-maskers.
Isis
👏👏👏 good job. Throw her ass in the the jail
Way to gentle with this moron!
She had it coming shouldn’t have kicked the officer or resisted, plus ofc this video does not show what happened before.
The main thing a police officer is meant to have is integrity this officer has no integrity why didn't he just give her a mask instead of forcing her to the ground so wrong Could of picked on someone his own size
Good
And my dear punched the cop and kicked the other cop also if you were being choked you most likely wouldnt be talking and swearing like that
Police has done the right thing.
Deserved everything she got.... and more.
Umm co-operate then?
Mmm can we see the start of the conflict please - like her attitude from the beginning- bet she was being an absolute little smart arse - not the ‘I did nothing wrong officer’ she wants everyone to believe
Trained but unrestrained? the male cop should be sacked. (in light of recent events OS)
Fuck my generation is embarrassing
They didn’t show so much initiative on compliance when CathLAndrews mowed down kid.
Good job
Well police you did your best reatrain her and the person video it should have been arrest too the police were set up here
Noone even bothers to actually do the research anymore. Not even the 'news'?
These cops are absolute bastards choking a girl to death.
Thank god it wasn’t America
Why is he holding her by her neck
There's no way she's being choked. Why even show this. Are you trying to turn people against the cops who keep us safe. One day you are going to be in trouble and who are ya gonna call?
Could have been completely avoided if she a) wore a mask or b) didn’t resist arrest
The dude should be on the ufc
He has hold of her jacket and has scrunched it up. You can see from the back of her that her right side of jacket is pulled up as he has grabbed the top of it. Funny how the image has been blurred to make it look as though he’s got his hand around her throat.
I don’t think for 1 second she spat on him .. Why? the only answer the female cop had for her arrest was that she kicked her!! This is after being choked the f out of by the copper .. if I was being choked and had another copper coming at me I would be kicking her too!!
He is just doing his job and not abusing if she was not resisting why would she having hard time. Well done 👍 VictoriaPolice
You’re allowed to use reasonable force to resist an unlawful arrest.
How about you put all the facts up. George Flloyd all over again
I'd say this escalated unnecessarily. If she spoke respectfully about her exemption you'd think the police would walk on. You'd hope so anyway. Everyone here keeps saying it's illegal to not wear one. That's actually false just FYI.
I understand she was in the wrong and attacked an officer but that doesn’t not give him any reason to put his hands around her throat. VictoriaPolice you know you’ve trained these officers better than that.
Stupid restraint by police so small could easily handle her differently but he was obviously pissed off, BUT she had an pass on wearing masks shoulda just said that, but he coulda done this differently!! But she should is complied!!
Turns out she had an exception from wearing one!! Shoulda just said that instead of challenging police, play stupid games win stupid prizes!!!
It has been going viral all day i saw it hours ago retweeted with commentry from Israel ....sad to see
Stay calm and listen to police and she wouldn’t have had a problem. The female police officer could of helped the situation get in there and help you partner !!
Do what your told
She should follow covid 19 govt. Rules. Police just doing their job and she is abusing them.
And this is why I am NOT proud if my own country ✨
What a joke we are free in this country all you people supporting the police and government move to a communist country.
Daniel Andrews supporters
Not necessary to put her in a choke hold. An arm up the back would have immobilised her long enough to get cuffs on
What a top bloke her boyfriend is, standing around filming
Police do their right things!
Excellent she was arrested good work Vic police
Good who’s filming her .. her friend..
FFS is simple if a Police Officer ask you to do something just do it, there's a generation of disrespectful youth that think they are special. Defend your police or defend yourself
Easy wear a f******g mask and stop being a d***k
Put a mask on and they would have walked right on by biatch
Why does the tweet say arrested for not wearing a mask but follow the link and it’s arrested for not providing ID?
Dogs.
I don’t care who is right or wrong in these comments we don’t need to see this on our streets over a face mask
Resisting arrest, violence towards police, no mask offence and whatever else....stupid woman
🤣🤣 Well done to the Police 👍🏻 Stupid people think they are above the rules, show everyone this footage of what can happen if you think you are above the rules, hope she gets a hefty fine! Selfish idiot!
She’s breaking the law and aggressively resisting arrest. The police officers are doing their job.
Bloody good job Vicpol. Should be more of it. 👍🏻
She was wearing a mask.....
Very gently controlled takedown
What do you expect from 5 week education that casts power hungry Bulldogs. Not excusing this woman's clear resisting arrest but shit..
Guy filming (who knows her, & knows about her doctor's visit), started filming from down street, & remained SILENT FOR SO LONG, while she was being choked. Then on CUE, put on a pathetic 'angry' act. LOL. VictoriaPolice YOUR A DISGRACE. Your FEAR TACTICS are OVER. Go home.
Footage of the shirt being grabbed, if anyone was wondering (and since the mainstream media blurred the shit out of it)
She deserved everything, well done go the police
Why are we even seeing this rubbish? Let the police do their job. They deal with these morons on a daily basis. She is a menace to society.
Well done police officer keep up the good work👏👏👏
Just wear a mask!!
No problems with this AT ALL, got what she deserved.
Stop placing yourself in sketchy situations. 💁♂️
I love the sensationalism by some media! A choke oh, so distressing for oxygen that she can banshee continuously and kick out at a female officer! Police training when a dope grabs your vest! Gradual application of pressure for compliance to let go! Great job officer! 👏👏👏
Simple, just wear a mask guys, don't be a dickhead. How many times do they have to tell u? You've had months to get your thin heads around it. Use any force needed I say👍
Wear a mask.
She looks like a druggie
They need to bring back the Baton. She would of stopped resisting and been rushed to the ER real quick
Well done . Policeman 👮♂️, otherwise Melbourne will have more people in worse situation
Just gonna drop this here...
She physically attacked a female officer!! She shouted profanities! She resisted arrest!! Next time wear a mask !! Well done Victoria police.
Another entitled young free spirited I can do what ever I want and ignore rules young person...
That's rape
Cop is holding her by the collar not choking her. This is what happens if you try to bite a Police Officer. entitledidiot
No doubt people that have “medical exemption” probably have no proof from a doctor
Ummm I don’t think being choked is the answer , I’d be kicking too if I was put in a choke hold. She’s tiny as if he needed to over power her that much
Looks like a perfect police take down. Wear a mask you imbecile its not that hard
Another angle:
It’s ok Karen, enjoy the night behind bars! It’s the worlds fault for not looking after you, not your own responsibility. Don’t take personal responsibility, let’s leave it to someone else. You get what you deserve Karen.
So she wasn’t wearing a mask; refused to give her details; resisted arrest and assaulted a police officer.....what did she expect? 🤣
'What have I done wrong?' after showing you're the kind of person who will literally kick and punch to get their way.
Its media. Show the start video where she did not listen and then cop would have taken next step.
She was not wearing a mask, didnt need to choke her. You wonder why there have been so many people violent to police, cause there turds.
White privilege working for her! Lucky she is from the European community of Australians. She would have been dead if she had been one of us natives. Like the countless since foreign White Europeans illegally landed on my land and didn't obey orders from us!
A generation where mummy and daddy said you can do whatever you want 😮 well it looks like that’s over!
Well done Vic police.
Well done Vic police.
And everyone just stands by and accepts this?
Suck it girly, you are not queen bee
That's abuse of power backed by the government, c'mon now big man picking on small woman, wouldn't mind there's a female cop present
Good on VictoriaPolice use less force on all people even those of colour just saying ...
What message are they sending the community? They meant to serve and protect not perv and disrespect
Follow the rules
Embarrassing for her
the left says the mask is for your own safety but you deserve to be strangled for not wearing one
And she had a medical exemption WOW....
