PORTLAND — Video captured a violent incident Sunday between a 16-year-old and police attempting to arrest him.

KPTV reports the incident began when police responded to reports of a disturbance in the area, including property damage and threats of a shooting.

Police arrived at a crowd they estimate to have been 20 to 30 people and “had the makings of a riot,” according to the report.

As police attempted to place the unidentified 16-year-old in handcuffs, a scuffle broke out.

The teen attempted to punch one officer in the face before punching a female officer just below the right eye.

The teen then choked that same officer.

Officers deployed a TASER on the teen after he repeatedly refused to stay on the ground.

Police described the crowd at the scene as “very hostile” towards officers. The suspect’s brother, 20-year-old Giovanni Gurule, who can be heard yelling in the video that was posted to social media, was also arrested at the scene.

Three officers suffered minor injuries in the incident.

The teen was arrested and faces charges of disorderly conduct, resisting arrest, assaulting a public safety officer, harassment, attempted strangulation and fourth-degree assault.

Gurule has been charged with disorderly conduct, interfering with a police officer and resisting arrest.

Per policy, police are investigating the incident.
