Yesterday, footage released on Facebook by Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta, displays a black man being dragged from his car and handcuffed by one police officer. Moments later another officer appears dashing in on the scene towards the handcuffed man — who’s then lying on the ground — the officer then appears to brutally stomp on the man’s face, for no reason and continues to assault the man by dig his knee into his back.
The man lying on the ground handcuffed, was not resisting arrest or showing any signs of aggression towards anyone in the video.
This act of police brutality is utterly disgusting, watch the video below:
Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta wrote on Facebook:
“We are DEMANDING that Gwinnett County Police Department immediately terminate this officer who viciously kicked a HANDCUFFED BLACK MAN lying on the ground in the middle of the street (off Sugarloaf Parkway) without cause and without merit.
“After brutally kicking him in the face, blood splattered everywhere.”
The group stated it would now seek to have criminal charges pressed against the officer.
The Gwinnett County police department is yet to comment on the video.
