Redacted Providence Police Bodycam Shows a Cop Spit On a Black Teenager Detained in the Street and a Mob of Other Angry, Ape-like Cops Assault and Rampage After a Pursuit to Make a BB Gun Arrest

From [HERE] Providence police on Wednesday released body camera footage of a pursuit that happened last month that led to the suspension of two officers.

The video released by police showed the teenagers accused of shooting at people and property with BB guns.

On July 8, police received calls about a discharge of rifles, possibly BB guns, that ended with an injury and property damage near Manton and Chalkstone avenues.

Officers spotted the people "responsible for recklessly operating a dark colored BMW convertible." They fled from several officers at a high rate of speed, said police.

Shortly after, investigators said officers chased the BMW through the city after reports that someone in the car was pointing a rifle at another person.

During the pursuit, investigators said someone in the car pointed the rifle at the officers.

Police said two 15-year-olds and a 16-year-old were eventually arrested.

The arresting officers, Domingo Diaz and Mitchel Voyer, were later put on leave with pay for using what Public Safety Commissioner Steven Pare said was "excessive use of force."

Mayor Jorge Elorza called the body camera video of the arrest "appalling" and "beyond upsetting."
