Body camera shows police on some power tripFrom the LMPD ..... LMPD is aware of a use of force incident by our officers during an arrest which was captured on video by a private citizen and posted to the internet. This video is from the body worn camera from one of our officers capturing that same incident. We urge the public to review our Use of Force Policy which outlines that officers are sometimes confronted with situations where control must be exercised to affect arrests and to protect public safety.While control is often achieved through de-escalation tactics there are times when the use of reasonable physical force may be necessary in situations that cannot be otherwise controlled because the suspect remains non-compliant and/or reasonable alternatives have been exhausted or would reasonably be ineffective under the particular circumstances.More info https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RHRCxZq3Qc
