BETHEL -- The harassment conviction of a Bethel man who was slammed repeatedly to the ground during an arrest last summer has been dismissed.

The rough arrest of Wassillie Gregory last July was captured by a security camera at the Alaska Commercial Co. store in the heart of Bethel. The video surfaced publicly in April when attorney Sean Brown filed a document in court to rescind the conviction. Gregory wasn't represented by a lawyer when he pleaded guilty last year to harassment related to his encounter with the police officer, Andrew Reid, who since has been fired from the police force.
