        Investigating? Looks clear to me. But let me guess. Once again the police will investigate the police and the police will determine the police did nothing wrong in their policing.

        Lets get rid of all police! Am i right? No law. No rules, no respect, no authority. That's the radical leftist utopia right? Spit on a cop. Swing at them. Fu*k them right? Just roll the tape when they respond accordingly and fire them all right?

        ...not to mention it appears he was the one attacked by the other kids in the first place and was crying. I hope this is dealt with swiftly

        There was no command from that officer to tell that boy to get down.. and he already sprayed him... he was under control...this is why we kneel and this is unnecessary force...#PoliceBrutality

        There was. you can hear the officer say "get on the ground." However, that doesn't make the kick the correct way to subdue someone. Especially someone blinded by mace and who doesn't know who just kicked them or even who the command was directed to.

        only 2 officers with a good amount of people surrounding them before the kick, this could be justified depending on what the guy who was kicked was doing to cause that crowd to be around him and the officers

        Looks like the kid’s eyes were blinded by and strap-like object during the scuffle. Officer still did not need to physically force him to the ground in that manner. I applaud the stranger intervening and holding the “cops” accountable

        Someone mentioned the kid and others got sprayed in the eyes by a liquid irritant. I’m compelled to agree after viewing the video done more

        Always looking for excuses for the cops.. the kid wasn’t even being violent toward the police officer he already got sprayed and couldn’t see the kick was unnecessary PERIOD

        If a police officer feels threatened enough by a young adult shielding his face, then he/she obviously is not fit for that position.

        Did you miss the part where a group of them were having an all out fight that the cops broke up? I take it you would have preferred the cops just stood aside and let themselves beat the snot out of each other right?

        Lol, at the point where the cop kicked the kid, the fight was broken up and the kid was just standing there. It looked like something was even in the boy's eyes. What video did YOU watch???
