Police Sergeant Assaults Female Colleague Who Tried To Deescalate Arrest

A police officer in Florida has been assigned to desk duty after bodycam footage showed him assaulting a fellow officer who was trying to de-escalate a Black man’s arrest.

The bodycam video reveals Sunrise police Sgt. Christopher Pullease threatened the suspect with pepper spray and engaged in a verbal confrontation with him after he’d already been taken into custody and placed in the back of a cop car.

In an interview with Miami’s Channel 7, Sunrise Police Chief Anthony Rosa expressed that Pullease’s actions were “disgusting,” adding that “the video speaks for itself.”

Calling Pullease’s efforts toward the suspect “inappropriate and unprofessional,” Rosa applauded the female officer, who has been on the team for only two-and-a-half years, for her efforts to de-escalate.

“I’m very proud of this police officer,” Rosa said.

“She took some definitive action. I can only imagine what she must be feeling. She’s a newer officer, and he’s a very senior sergeant.”




Interviewers asked why Pullease isn’t encountering criminal charges, Rosa said: “So there’s some details of the investigation that I’ve not disclosed, that I’m unable to disclose right now, and if any of the information that comes up during the investigation rises to a level of criminal behavior or criminal conduct, then we’ll address it appropriately.”
