The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is reviewing the actions of deputies captured on video confronting three men in a gray sedan who complained of unlawful harassment.
Sheriff Alex Villanueva said he does not want to “Monday morning quarterback” the incident, which began with the three men sitting in the car after being pulled over, until investigations into the suspects’ and deputies’ conduct are complete. His primary concern at the moment is for the welfare of a deputy who was allegedly kicked in the stomach by the driver and broke her arm in three places when she fell to the ground,“If you have a doubt about the actions of a peace officer, you’re not going to improve the situation by resisting violently, resisting with force,” Villanueva said.In the video, posted May 25 on YouTube, the men make a phone call to ask for a supervisor as a male deputy hovers at the driver’s side door.
“You just stuck your hand in here and tried to open the door,” one of the men says. “Like what hell? Just ask me.”A female deputy arrives, saying: “Relax. Just relax.”Eventually, the male deputy opens the door and attempts to handcuff the driver. A tussle ensues inside the car, as the driver resists and the deputy puts a hand on the suspect’s head, knocking his hat off.One of the men says they were stopped for having tinted windows.
The driver ends up face down on the ground with both deputies trying to handcuff him. The alleged kick in the stomach and injury to the female deputy are not apparent in the video.The driver was arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon on a peace officer, resisting an officer with force and driving without a license, Villanueva said. One passenger was arrested on suspicion of failing to comply with a lawful order, and the other on suspicion of possession of methamphetamine for sale.
minorities are pulled over by cops more and cops are more likely to use lethal force.
Gonna be a long summer. GeorgeFloyd 😭
😂 In other news, 'Jeffrey Epstein reviewing the testimony of the minors he raped'. History shows that the LAPDHQ internal review will be truthful. 🙄
The report is bullshit and the reporter just going by what the cops said is bullshit too. No video, no justice. This happens everyday to us.
Another cop trying to flex 🤷🏽♂️ they get all butt hurt when someone knows their rights. Their only reaction is to show force for no reason because he thought that badge gave him complete power 😂
Просто оставайтесь дома
Looks like the dep was punching to get the guys attention, and not trying to cause bodily harm. Looked like the dep was slapping the guy with his wrist/forearm, cause if he would have hit the guy with a straight punch the guy would be knocked out and not talking
I keep saying it but ya don't listen. its time to start killing these motherfuckers.
