Bus Confrontation
Police asked the woman, who was carrying stroller full of pillows, to get off the bus. The officers then grabbed and punched her after she refused. Police demanded that Green hand over the cell phone that he used to record the incident.
“They said get off the bus. She then started cursing at (the female deputy).
You could tell she had special needs. After that they grab her, she curses him out, calls him a big shot, next thing you know he gives her a big shot,” Green said.
“I couldn’t believe it. He seen me taping. He looked up at the camera a few times, and he still hit her like that, and I can’t believe he didn’t try to diffuse the situation at all,” Green said.
