Shocking video shows a police officer punching a teenager several times as she tried to arrest him atFairfield High School in the Bay Area— as concerns about her past are revealed.
The cop, who has not been named, appeared to strike 16-year-old Maurice Williams multiple times as she attempted to detain him following a school fight last week.
Fairfield police described the hits as “distraction strikes” that took place before the student was restrained. Family members of Williams disagree, saying he was “beaten like a dog.”
“No parent or family member should ever have to watch their loved one being treated that way,” his step-mom said in a press conference last week.
Abodycam videoshows a male officer detaining one student and escorting him to the school office before another student begins taking video of him then fleeing.
He resists the officer’s attempts to arrest him before the officer appears to restrain the second student.
The second student, Williams, then appears to turn toward the officer before he’s shoved to the ground. Bodycam from the second officer, the female, shows her screaming at the student and striking him multiple times.
“Give me your f–king hands,” she yells. Williams is then handcuffed, as several onlookers watch.
Police said both students were arrested for “causing a disturbance on a school campus and resisting arrest.” Cops said sharp objects were found in the backpacks confiscated during the fight.
