It was just before 1 a.m. in Mansfield, Ohio. A 67-year-old man set out on a simple errand: to grab a 50-cent soda from a vending machine at the Car Wash & Mini Mart, just a block from his home. But he would never get that soda, because the Mansfield Police Department rolled up on him and immediately detained him for allegedly jaywalking across this empty street. Knowing that he did nothing wrong, the man complained. But he was then forcefully grabbed and then slammed to the parking lot asphalt, severely injuring him. An army of officers then surrounded him, mocked him and belittled him. All the while ignoring his obvious physical injuries.

Violent, anti-Americans who hate our country. These are the type of cops who never go after violent crime because they are too cowardly to do so.
How is this serving or protecting?
They're going to destroy us all. They're psychopaths.
They really needed half dozen more cops,he is 67 yrs old and pretty dangerous 😂😂
Looks like their PD is overstaffed to me. A half-dozen officers to stand around and make fun of a violently subdued jawalker. FIRE EVERY ONE OF THESE BULLIES!
There is NOTHING that bully cops can not make worse. They need to remember they are not above the law, but only there to enforce the law and like to show anyone who don't bow down and lick their boots who is the tough guys. Smh
The real issue, dehumanizing police.
They have lost most of humanity, treating people WITH Violent force over a NOTHING.
The casual way they hurt and humiliate people is frightening.
All that for jaywalking
Are we completely sure it's jaywalking. The road segment had a traffic light on side and a stop sign on the other end. Does this affect being charged by the Ohio revised code. Especially, if he caused no vehicle to stop or have a incident.
Welcome to the slave farm.
So there must have been an active shooter somewhere across town.
What a bunch of thugs. Their courts must be corrupt as they are.
🥺
! * PUBLIC SAFETY REMINDER * ⚠ SMART PEOPLE DON'T WANT TO BE COPS.
Criminals
-would-love that job!Wonder what they would've done if he would've no intentions in mind?
This is the story of weak, coward cops who are scared to do actual police work.
Little MAN syndrome
The community is “shocked”? Why? This happens all the time with tyrant cops.
Bullies who all show up to pick on an old man “jaywalking”.
What dickless punks.
This is what you get when you have to many cops on a shift in a town that has nothing going on. They where bored so they created excitement
These videos of repeated police brutality are so depressing.
American police are a group of shitholes.
Worse than criminals with guns
Finally someone with a platform doing good. Not just putting out garbage.
😡🤬
☠️😒
Southern Drawl Law just covered this earlier this week. This cop is sunk
Bastards
This is why I love reading cops obituaries. The more the better.
The trash starts at the top , I hope he gets a lawyer that bankrupts the town for inaction
When cops have that much free time for something so petty, it should be mandated they have to actually do foot patrol and actually engage with the community to fill the time
Get me a soda……score…..set for life! Need to send stupid cop to jail.
This is what I would do with my lottery winnings
Find every bad cop I can and ensure their day in court and karma comes faster than the speed of light
I counted 5 or 6 cops for "jaywalking".
This is the power hungry government that think that badge is POWER
You simply can not hate these pigs enough.
Walking while White
Yet another, kiss the (blue 👮) boot, or SUFFER THE WRATH OF MY EGO AND AUTHORITY!!! 🙄
So if your car is parked across the street it's Jay walking, too? And they can do this
these WWE wannabes are worse than actual criminals.
And they wonder why so many of them are HATED by Citizens.
Imagine if he was buying a beer?
More than 3 it shouldn't be. That is a gang. How is this not a breech of the 4th amendment…
