This latest instance of police excessive use of force against people of color is jaw dropping in the sheer arrogance shown by the officer.
Police said one of the women on the porch at a nearby home matched the description of a suspect in the complaint.
The video showed the officer speaking with another one of the women on the porch, identified by police as Kyndesia Smith, who could be heard saying: “You’re on our property.”
“We did not call you, I’m not going anywhere,” Smith said.
The officer responded that she was under arrest and grabbed her, later firing a stun gun at her, according to the video. The woman fell into bushes in front of the home screaming as the officer continued to struggle with her in an attempt to place her in handcuffs.
In another video obtained by news outlets, Smith appeared to kick at the officer as he pushed her into the back of a police car.
The police statement alleged the officer gave the woman “several warnings” and told her she would be stunned if she resisted commands.
