Three Arizona officers who were involved last year in the violent arrest of black man who is deaf and suffers from cerebral palsy have finally been disciplined. In Aug 2024, police bodycam video showed Tyron McAlpin being repeatedly tased and punched by Phoenix police after they responded to a call about a white man loitering at a convenience store. The video captured two officers jumping out of their patrol vehicle and immediately punching McAlpin at least ten times. The three officers were given "24-hour unpaid suspensions" and two of the officers were also required to attend "additional de-escalation training." Warning, you may find video disturbing: youtu.be |
