NYPD Cops Once Again Pummel 12 Year Old With Blows

Internal Affairs is inves­ti­gat­ing the cir­cum­stances of an arrest, cap­tured on video, that shows a plain­clothes cop repeat­ed­ly punch­ing a teen sus­pect in the body as three uni­formed cops were try­ing to sub­due and hand­cuff him, police said.

“Hey! Hey! Hey!” one woman is heard yelling. “Stop it! Get off of him!”

Another woman can be heard iden­ti­fy­ing her­self as a lawyer and say­ing the sus­pect is only 12 years old.

“I can’t believe he just did that after every­thing that’s hap­pened,” she said, an appar­ent ref­er­ence to the Eric Garner case and oth­er inci­dents cap­tured on video.

The NYPD said Internal Affairs is inves­ti­gat­ing the inci­dent. Police also said two sus­pects, includ­ing the one struck, were arrest­ed for assault­ing anoth­er per­son with a cane.

The exact date and time of the inci­dent was not clear.http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/nyc-crime/nypd-plainclothes-officer-hits-youth-cuffed-article‑1.2050762
