An auxiliary police officer (APO) has been suspended from duty after he was caught on video kicking a speeding e-scooter rider, sending him tumbling onto the pavement. The officer was with a team of Certis Cisco APOs and Land Transport Authority (LTA) Active Mobility...

But others criticised the officer's use of force, which could have injured the rider, who is understood to be a 20-year-old man.

The LTA also said it is investigating offences committed by the rider, which include riding an unregistered and non-compliant personal mobility device on public roads and failing to stop his device when required by an officer.The e-scooter, which weighs more than 10kg above the legal limit of 20kg, has been impounded. E-scooters are not allowed on roads and were also banned on public footpaths last month.

"The officer was also injured and was treated at the site before heading to the hospital for further medical assistance."Certis Cisco said that its enforcement protocols require officers to note down the appearance of the escaping PMD user and lodge a report with LTA. Without condoning the officer's action, Mr Koh said it is important to consider the circumstances that led to the incident.

Good kick Officer, all law enforcement officers should be trained that way. If that idiotic PMD rider had knocked down an elderly person, would you still have blamed the CISCO officer? 🙄 Other rumours said that he suffered head injury, broken arm, broken rib.
