A video released as part of a lawsuit against police in Millville, Philadelphia, shows an officer forcefully punching a woman in the face four times after he bungled an attempt to arrest her for riding a bike on the sidewalk.

As reported by NBC news, Sheila Stevenson, 42, has filed a civil suit (PDF), alleging police used excessive force, after then-Millville Police Officer Carlo Drogo stopped her one year ago on February 3 2008.

The newly released video shows Drogo attempting to use pepper spray on Stevenson while she is still on the bike, but instead spraying himself in the face.

As Stevenson struggles, a reeling Drogo knocks her off the bike and onto the ground.

Two more cops then arrive and haul Stevenson to the curb, one of them seemingly applying the full force of his upper arm onto her neck and head.

The same cop then thrusts his knee into her back twice, with full force, whilst attempting to handcuff her.

"I am not doing nothing," Stevenson screams.

"Put your hands behind your back," one of the other officers orders.

"Can you not do this? I'm not doing nothing! I'm not doing nothing," she wails.

Drogo, clearly in great discomfort from using his own pepper spray on himself, then approaches Stevenson after the other officers have restrained her and aggressively punches her in the face and head four times.

"Why are you hitting me? You're hitting me! Why are you hitting me?" Stevenson cries out. "Why did you hit me and I'm handcuffed?"

Stevenson was later convicted of resisting arrest. As noted by NBC10, Drogo resigned from the police department in October for undisclosed reasons. He has previously issued a statement defending his actions and maintaining that Stevenson's allegations represent a distortion of the facts.

dude you don't know the whole story and there are two sides and only reason she would sue is for drug money she is a local crack head literally a $5. whore. She has had multi-drug charges and warrants. when she resisted and he tried to use pepper spray and went back at him hell yeah I would be pissed too I am female and don't think females should be hit etc. if you lived in the area and knew the pol.ice on a personal. level you would change your mind

whatever she resisted...she was met with the neccesary force to effect the arrest what ever that may have been for

@squig792000

No , the other 2 fat pigs just took advantage of the struggle to get their fat pig hands all over her body too. Guess her tits were just too much for the horny cops to resist.

@jackattack103 The cop feels her tits up so the camera cant see whats going on, she head butts him to make him stop and he is the vicitm? That is sexual assault

[deaditequeen]

Some of you have it twisted. She DID NOT pepper spray the cop, the cop had his canister facing the wrong way and pepper sprayed HIMSELF. He the proceeded to take his own idiotic frustrations out on her.

@loooovvveeeee

Do you have any idea what rape is. Before you use a word know what it means. Rape is a act of sexual violence there is no sexual interaction in the video so in no way is it rape. Get a new word kthxbai
