Two Phoenix police officers have been placed on administrative leave and a criminal investigation is underway after video showed officers kicking a handcuffed suspect in the head.
The video shows officers restraining the man’s arms and handcuffing him before he turns on his side. The officer with the rifle then kicks the man in the back.
"What is depicted in the video is not how we train and is not aligned with the core values of the Phoenix Police Department," Phoenix police Chief Michael Sullivan said in a statement. Sullivan was sworn in as the department's new chief on Friday.Denman is accused of using a handgun to fire two shots within close range of the two officers’ patrol car as they were driving out of a parking space in the convenience store parking lot, according to police.
The department said the store was unoccupied, but the video shows what appear to be other people in the background.
