Washington Cops Arrest Witnesses and Videographer During Routine Arrest

A pair of Auburn, Wa. police officers making an arrest pretty much had the situation under control.

Their suspect was handcuffed and it was just a matter of rolling him over and standing him up.

One police officer even greeted bystanders witnessing the arrest by saying, “hey, how are you doing?”

But the witnesses started moving closer which prompted the second cop to order them away, accusing them of “impeding our investigation.”

Their investigation was so impeded that both cops left the handcuffed suspect unattended to deal with the bystanders.

Meanwhile, another witness moved away from the interaction to continue recording with his phone.

The video shows one of the officers grabbing one of the bystanders, who appeared to be a puny teenage boy, and handcuffing him.

This naturally drew protests from the remaining bystanders as well as the videographer, which riled the cops up even more.

At 1:00, it starts getting ugly with one cop walking towards a bystander who is walking backwards.

The cop is saying, “If I put my hands on you, you’re going to jail, motherfucker.”

And while he is saying that, the second cop walks up to him and grabs him in a chokehold, knocking him to the ground and handcuffing him.
