Looks like he was caught...black handed.

According to police, Carroll began to fight as police tried to arrest him and bit two officers who had to be treated for "bleeding bite wounds." Police also say that Carroll was "transported to the hospital after intentionally striking his own head against the protective shield located in the police vehicle."

According to family spokeswoman Margaret Prescod, Carroll has been charged with simple and aggravated assault, reckless endangerment and a drug charge. Police say that Carroll had 5.3 grams of crack cocaine on him at the time of his arrest.

They can't handwave the kicks you can't either.

Resisting arrest. Not sure what the issue is here.

24 fat, bald white cops beating a black guy. No problem, it would have been a problem if it was the entire precinct beating him, which I'm sure it's what happened once he got into the building but no one filmed that.

Maybe he shouldn't resist arrest.

There must be a different video that you saw, I didn't see 24 cops beating anyone.

You don't see an issue with literally TWENTY (20) cops there for ONE (1) guy, with no weapon? ..Really?

And yet somehow what the suspect did to the police isn't? Grandma, what lovely double standards you have!

This thread is yet another stellar example of misguided people that have zero concept of police protocols.

Why exaggerate on what's seen on the video though? Take anything horrific, even if we don't know the details leading up to the incident, and then you exaggerate what can be seen, it automatically casts a shadow of disbelief on whatever truths are being conveyed.

screaming for help while 4 people beat you is resisting arrest? You are sick.

I'am supposed to hold the police to the same standard as the criminal and lock both up in prison?

where's the difference between a criminal and a US police officer? I doubt there is one.

There will be only one person on this video who spend jail time.

Resisting arrest or not, they used an excessive amount of force. You're telling me they couldn't just grab his arms and cuff him so they just beat the shit out of him? Cops are classy.

Well, the good news is, you don't have to do anything... they already did it, and you can't really effect the outcome of how he was dealt with, or how the police officers will be handled.

You can however continue to keyboard warrior your way around an MMO forum in indignation for what that's worth, which unfortunately for you, is at best a few chuckles... I know I had some.

You think they shouldn't get jailtime for the assault or think it was appropriate?

When's the last time you ever tried to arrest a man hopped up on drugs? Wait, what's that? NEVER?!?!?!?!?!

Then stop trying to enlighten us on your obvious lack of expertise. Pretty sure they tried that, and he, ya know....resisted that? Kinda where the phrase RESISTING ARREST comes from?

A novel concept, the English language. Words actually have definitions.
