A video of a New York Police Department officer punching a woman in the face during an arrest has gone viral after being shared online.

TMZ reported that the incident occurred on August 12 in Harlem. A group of officers were spotted in the middle of a crowd, attempting to arrest a man in connection with an attempted murder.

As the scene became chaotic, a police officer was seen trying to push a woman away from the crowd, and she shoved him back. This made the police officer punch the woman who then fell backward to the pavement.

This left those at the scene shocked and one man was heard yelling at the cop, "Why would you do that?!"

It's unclear if she fell unconscious, but moments later the cops had her up on her feet and put her in handcuffs.

Reacting the controversy that trailed the video, the NYPD described it as self-defense. The police department said “while police were effecting the arrest, multiple individuals on scene interfered by physically assaulting numerous officers. One officer sustained a minor injury to the head.”

Two women reportedly ended up charged with assaulting an officer, resisting arrest, and obstructing governmental administration. One of them was additionally charged with menacing and harassment, and a third woman was accused of spitting at an officer.

It's unclear which of those women is the punching victim from the video. As of now, NYPD has not announced any discipline for the cop.

SOURCE

Not right.

Good reply from the cop.

The useless mother that refused to train her daughter properly is sobbing on camera hoping to get some form of settlement .

NYPD won’t give you shishi

This is clear. She was assaulting an officer while also interfering and obstructing him from making an arrest.

She deserved this one.

Hell would have breached if the assault was the reverse case.

That gender act before they reason.

Later be forming victim

Female Gender always playing victim.
it's clearly seen on the video that she attack the officer's first and trying to obstruct an arrest.
should he be looking like a fool while he's been assaulted because she's a female??

Jennifer663:
Not right.

Why assault a police officer?

He will fit right into Nigerian police force

I see that officer loosing his job, and as a black man, I see him going to jail.

This I have seen.

It Seems Unprofessional

Obi supporters receiving punch by 2023

imagine slapping someone old enough to be your Father or Brother...

I just thank God the officer no be white the matter for worst pass this....

Massive protest for don hit US like this and become an Avenue for looters nd people looking for a way to dodge Inflation with the looting.....

That police guy looks like a Nigerian police man transferred abroad.

The lady charged at him first....

She assaulted the police officer first now

I am not supporting the officer responding with a punch but the lady got a taste of what she dished out to the officer

US is always trying to be politically correct.
Police has a right to use force when attacked.
If you don't want to be punched by a police, do not try and slap or blow them.
The way it is going, the US civil rights is going to turn the police into a babysitting organization.

Nonsense

The idiot girl charge at and slapped the police officer first while the police is doing his job of arresting an alleged murderer

Why do women start a fight then turn around to claim victim

No girl got no right to slap anyone including police officers

Akata never cease to amaze me, she clearly tried to stop an officer from making an arrest by first attacking the officer. The officer responded in kind.

Madness everywhere
Why would he do that

Awful but lawful, I love the way that man described it. How can you slap a police officer in his line of duty and not expect an immediate counter-response.

The officers response was obviously a reflex action due to years of combat training and street experience.

Blow

His career is done by punching her on camera. Especially that he is a black cop.

Nice one if na me na breast i go punch her so she will relax

This Blow hot Gan
The Officer replied in kind.
