The video shows NYPD officers getting into a physical confrontation with an onlooker, and then body slamming him on a street in Brooklyn New York.
According to reporting by ANIMAL, police in Brooklyn NY started telling street vendors in Sunset Park — known for its large Latino population — that it’s 6PM and they need to close up shop, and it ends with violence and multiple people being arrested and assaulted by police while cops also are attacked.
The report states that on Sunday at the 5th Avenue festival a group of at least six officers approaches a vendor and tells him to shut down his table. It appears they give him no time and quickly it escalates. A black female police officer says “6′oclock it’s 6 o’clock. You guys know the rules. Simple.”
It then sounds like she says, “If you guys are gonna fuck with us, we’re gonna fuck with you,” and a male officer then starts asking an older woman on the street who she is and how old she is. A younger man in a Cincinatti Reds hat tells the group of women they don’t have to answer that, and the male cop then approaches the young man and soon a confrontation begins.
Cops can be seen punching and kicking the man in the Reds hat and it spirals downward, with people at times trying to fight back against police. Multiple people were shooting with their phones
