Fired Baytown police officer charged with assaulting bystander during videotaped arrest
Skylar Gilmore was thrown to the ground and kneed in the face after asking Officer Nathaniel Brown why his friend was being arrested, prosecutors say.
“The grand jury has made clear that our community won’t tolerate unnecessary violence by anyone, including police officers,” Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg said. “We need one standard for everyone and the law must be applied equally in order for people to continue to believe in our justice system.”
Brown, a nine-year veteran of the Baytown Police Department, was fired after the incident on June 2 drew protests.
Eyewitnesses nearby asked why their friend was being arrested and one man began recording the officers on his cell phone.
Video shows Brown confronting the witnesses and ordering 24-year-old Skylar Gilmore to put his hands behind his back. Then Gilmore was thrown to the ground.
"The officer then used a knee to strike Gilmore in the shoulder and face," Ogg said in a statement. [/quote]
I hope he sue's them because the Policeman had no business going over confronting him... Citizen can take all the video he wants!!!!
This is why its good Camera's Are In Society and People are using them. Some people should never be allowed to wear a bad and a gun
This is why people are Protesting and its why there are also a mass of white people Protesting - The Police Don't Know Their Limits...
Everyone knows, that never would have happen to a wealthy person in a wealthy community.

It's all on video ... the guy is stumbling and mumbling on the scene when cops arrived to see his Dodge Charger had swiped several parked cars in L.A.'s Los Feliz neighborhood on Aug. 22. Whatever he was on ... he was struggling to stay upright as he spoke to the owners of the other cars and exchanged info with them. He nearly fell on his face right in front of a cop who, for some reason, seemed to ignore the behavior!!!
The witness who shot this video is stunned in disbelief as the cops tell the victims to contact their insurance ... as they simply let the wasted guy walk -- sorta -- away. People on the scene were pissed, and with good reason.
