Alabama Cop Suspended For Tasering Crying Man After She Detained Him While He Was Changing A Tire

An Alabama cop is on administrative leave after cameras caught her tasing a crying black man as he laid on top of a car in handcuffs.

According to the Alabama Political Reporter, 24-year-old Micah Washington and two other people were in Reform, Alabama changing a tire when the officer pulled up and began to question them.

When things began to escalate, the officer handcuffed Micah and threw him against her patrol car. In the video, you can see Micah following her orders while she continues to verbally assault him. He then informs her that there’s a gun in his pocket, from which she takes it out and says “Oh yeah!”

Micah, who is obviously confused, questions why the officer said that, given he didn’t pull the weapon out on her. The officer then abruptly tases him in the back as Micah screams in pain and begins to cry.

The officer, showing no remorse, readjusts the taser and tells Micah to “shut the f*** up” or she’ll do it again. “Shut yo b**** a** up,” she says before the video ends.

Since the video has gone viral, the officer is currently suspended and the Reform Police Department is investigating the situation. Micah was charged with resisting arrest, marijuana possession, obstructing governmental operations, drug trafficking and possessing a firearm as a felon.

“The department is in the process of turning over all materials related to this arrest to the Alabama State Bureau of Investigation and has requested a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the arrest,’’ the release from the police department stated.
