The unnamed 11-year-old describing the terrifying ordeal.
A burglar alarm was tripped in a Groveland, Florida home and two Groveland police officers let themselves into the garage and then the house. While searching the home, they came across an 11-year-old girl in bed watching TV and promptly
pinned her to the ground at gunpoint:
"One of the officers was pushing me down and when he was pushing me down, (he) put his knee on me and the other officer had his gun pointed at me," she told Channel 9.
Groveland police have opened an investigation of excessive force and it isn't the first time the duo have been investigated:
Channel 9 found Officers James Festa and John Rigdon have been with the department for three years, and both have been disciplined several times, according to their personnel files.
Festa was reprimanded in December for botching a child abuse investigation. He was also been suspended in 2013 for sleeping on the job.
Rigdon was suspended in May and demoted in 2013 from corporal. He was also reprimanded in 2011. Each punishment was the result of allegedly filing false police reports.
