So what's the problem? You ever see how blacks conduct themselves in
Wisconsin? This cop should get a promotion for not shooting the smart-
mouthed black turd.
Disturbing cellphone video shows the moment police officers fighting with
a 17-year-old in a Wisconsin mall parking lot punch the minor in the face.
The dramatic video was captured by a fellow mall shopper, who later posted
it on social media.
Security guards at Mayfair Mall in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, called police
officers on Friday afternoon for people making a disturbance and refusing
to leave, WDJT-TV reports. Officers from the Wauwatosa Police Department
responded to the call, and witness video shows two of them in an
altercation with the teen.
Within the first few seconds of the video, one officer punches the teen,
and the two work together to bring the teen to ground. They appear to cuff
his hands behind his back as he lays on his stomach. As the officers
pinned the teen to the ground, he could be heard pleading with the
officers to call his mother.
"Why'd they punch him like that -- and he's a minor," a witness is heard
saying in the background of the cellphone video. The officers are heard
yelling at other people to stay back.
The Wauwatosa Police Department said in a statement that the video showed
"only a small segment of the interaction between the suspect and the
officer" and that they are looking into the incident.
The 17-year-old was arrested and cited for disorderly conduct, battery and
resisting an officer, according to local media. He was cited and released,
WDJT-TV reports.
The Black Panthers say they're holding police and mall security
accountable. The group is demanding the officer be fired and that the
department go through diversity training.
"It doesn't matter if that individual was causing a disturbance in the
Mayfair Mall, he did not deserve to be brutally assaulted, and punched in
his face and knocked down and then placed on his stomach and punched in
his face again," Black Panthers Milwaukee leader, King Rick, said.
"Listen. This happened yesterday. You need to give it time. You need to
let our department do the investigation. It will be investigated," said
shift commander Lt. Jeff Farina. Farina also says the officer involved is
still working.
On Friday the Wauwatosa police chief sent a statement saying they take
situations that involve use of force seriously. Farina says the chief will
be in Monday to respond to the Black Panthers' demands.
