MILLVILLE -- Video captured by a bystander on a Millville city street Tuesday night shows a Millville police officer punching a man on the ground.

The man, 34-year-old Barry Cottman, of Millville, was allegedly jaywalking prior to the incident and, according to Millville Police Chief Jody Farabella, he refused to comply with the officers' orders.

The incident took place at the corner of 5th St. & E. Mulberry St. Tuesday around around 7:27 p.m. In a video obtained by NJ Advance Media, a Millville Police officer can be seen punching Cottman multiple times while on the ground.

In the video, two officers can be seen attempting to restrain the man. While the man, later identified as Cottman, is on the ground, an officer is seen punching him while another is restraining him.

Cottman can be heard yelling "get off my neck" while an officer tells him to stop resisting. The officer then punches the man once again while he is on the ground.

Farabella said the department's professional service unit is investigating Tuesday's incident. The department is also working with the Cumberland County Prosecutor's Office.

Cottman was later taken to Cape May County jail for an unrelated outstanding warrant for unpaid child support payments. He was charged with aggravated assault on the police, obstruction of justice, hindering apprehension by force, resisting arrest by force and disorderly conduct.
