Assaulted by New York City Police Officer

http://www.hopkinsinvestments.com
Prosecutors dropped charges on Friday morning, as expected, against the bicyclist who was shoved off his bike in July by a police officer in Times Square. The confrontation between the cyclist, Christopher Long, and a New York City police officer, Patrick Pogan, was captured on amateur video and circulated widely over the Internet.
Mr. Long, 29, had been charged with assault, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct on July 25 after Officer Pogan wrote in his report that Mr. Long had been weaving in and out of traffic and that he had deliberately hit the officer with his bicycle.
But video recorded by an onlooker soon surfaced on YouTube, showing Officer Pogan lowering his shoulder and shoving Mr. Long off his bike on Seventh Avenue at 46th Street as Mr. Long tried to steer out of the way. (Officer Pogan was stripped of his badge and gun and placed on desk duty pending the completion of an investigation into his conduct.)

the cop wanted him to stop thats why he walked in his path. the biker didnt stop. the cop acted. just over the top

Now why in the hell did the cop do that?Unreal

the cop had no reason to commit an assault on that particular bicyclist and should be charge as he could have seriously concussed this person....he would have been called on an elbow if he were at a sports event...so if its wrong in sports its absolutely wrong in this video.
