JMPD officer caught on camera grabbing driver by the neck

Loading player...
A now-viral video showing a JMPD officer grabbing a man by the neck and pulling him out of a vehicle has sparked outrage among community members and officials.

Video footage taken from inside the vehicle shows two men being pulled over by JMPD officers.

Once one of the officers approaches the driver’s window, the interaction quickly takes a dark turn.

The driver and the officer can be seen arguing before the officer grabs the man by the throat.

After a while, he releases the man and the argument continues.

Moments later, officers open the vehicle’s door and attempt to forcibly remove the driver.

When the man refuses to be grabbed, one officer again grabs him by the neck, pulls him out of the vehicle and throws him to the ground.
