Police Brutality: Badly Beat for Speeding (DashCamRaw)

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - The Minneapolis Police chief says he will review a video showing six of his officers punching and kicking a 42-year-old man during a traffic stop. The FBI have been called in to investigate.

Chief Tim Dolan says he will review the video of Derryl Jenkins' arrest on Monday. Jenkins was stopped on Feb. 19 in north Minneapolis. He says he had a late-night dinner and three beers at Rudolph's Bar-B-Que and was headed to a friend's house when he was stopped for allegedly speeding.

Jenkins had to have seven stitches above his eye after the six officers tasered, punched and kicked him during the incident. Jenkins was with charged assault and refusing to submit to alcohol tests, but those charges have been dropped.

According to police reports, Jenkins resisted arrest. But Jenkins says the video shows he was the victim of an unprovoked attack.

@gotgank "stops resisting" Which part? Should his face 'stop resisting' the officer's foot while the officer is kicking the prone, & helpless victim? "let the bad guys go" Nope, the police should arrest the six cowardly thugs on this video...the guys in blue. This is the UNITED STATES, not a police state...if you are such a coward that you would prefer to live in a police state THEN LEAVE....but don't EVER refer to yourself as an 'American', nor a 'Man', I can assure you, nobody else does.

In this video though the guy isn't co-operating so the beginning was just but 4 cops kicking him on the ground. Wtf?

Drunk drivers kill way more people than crooked cops ever did. Screw him. And it looks like he put his hand in the cops face when he gets out. And he was being mouthy at the beginning of the audio so it is easy to believe he started trouble. The cop told him to "stay in the car man" but he kept coming. Drunk on the side of the road is a stupid place to get belligerent with a cop.

@DominoStorm1 the guy didn't even fight back or it would have been game over for the cop.

well I would not say that this was unprovoked, but what the cops did was wrong period, but he at first did not comply with the verbal commands from the officer, what the responding cops did was insane.

Police Officer #4: "Kick Him! Kick Him!"

This seems resonable, if your power tripping mental midget. The police hate to hear the word no, unless you say no freedoms, no rights, no mercy but soon Minniapolis will be told, no resisting here, so pay the man for your ignorance. hahahahaha
