A passenger in a car that did not immediately stop for police raised his hands, and a plainclothes officer broke the window with his forearm. The police chief in St. Ann, Mo., is defending the actions.
By Katie Mettler Katie Mettler Reporter covering breaking news and features Email Bio Follow May 8 at 4:31 PM We just watched this happen!! Now that’s abuse! So uncalled for!! Pulled him through shard glass window with his hands in the air!! Then kicked him 😡😡
The man, who authorities have not identified, shields himself from the glass, then raises his hands again. The uniformed officer says something to the man, who responds, “I can’t." Authorities wrote in a Facebook post on the St. Ann Neighborhood Watch page that “at no point was there any abuse on the part of police regardless of what the person driving by, videotaping the incident and screaming that it was ‘abuse’ [said].”
St. Peters authorities did not pursue the vehicle but did alert other municipalities. St. Ann police attempted to deploy road spikes to stop the sedan, Fox 2 Now reported. The sedan accelerated, swiped the side of a tractor-trailer and drove away, police said.“One of the passengers of the car refused to put his hands up, unlock the door, or open the window,” authorities said in the statement on Facebook.
“I know what we saw and it did not seem justified to me to drag him through broken glass the way they did. He was a passenger, not the driver,” she said. “Look at the beginning of video, his hands were up and he was afraid. None of you would want this to happen to your child. I know I wouldn’t.”
