This event makes Friday news tonight. A California Highway Patrol officer is under fire for using excessive force against a female suspect they accused of acting crazed on a busy stretch of highway.
There was a man who filmed the event and the shocking video went viral. This event happened on Tuesday and the junk food media is now on it.
The NAACP and of course Rev. Perm are going to be ready to strike.
Knowing that California law enforcement and the Black and Latino communities aren't the best of friends, the possibility of unrest could occur.
The video posted on YouTube shows the cop pursuing the woman on foot past an I-10 on-ramp. Those recording it can be heard laughing at first.
CHP says the officer asked the woman to stop, but she refused and continued to walk away from him.
"A physical altercation ensued as the pedestrian continued to resist arrest, at which point a plain clothes, off duty officer assisted in applying the handcuffs," the CHP said in a statement given to KABC.
The woman refused to give her name and is identified only as "Jane Doe." KABC says she was taken to a hospital for physical and mental evaluation.
