Shocking photos/video of white police officer beating up a 14-year-old black girl
05:33Unknown
The incident played out at a suburban pool party, not an urban neighborhood struggling with crime and drugs. But perhaps it was that suburban setting that helped make the images so powerful and disturbing.
Now a video of a police officer pointing a gun at teenagers in bathing suits and shoving a young black girl’s face into the ground has become the latest flash point in relations between the police and minorities.
The cellphone video, taken at the community pool in Craig Ranch, a racially diverse subdivision north of Dallas, has set off another debate over race and police tactics, with activists calling for the officer to be fired and others arguing that the blame should fall at least in part on the teenagers.
The video appears to show the officer, David Eric Casebolt, briefly waving his handgun at young partygoers who approached him as he tried to subdue the teenage girl on Friday. The officer ultimately immobilized the girl by putting her facedown on the ground and placing a knee on her back. Massive protests are on-going at the moment
