Danville man alleges police brutality
A Danville man who was beaten by city police officers while being arrested Monday says the officers used excessive force taking an innocent man into custody. "It wasn't right. All of this was for nothing, man. I didn't do anything," said Robin "Robbie" Houston. "And I want to get paid for it." Witnesses said one officer struck several blows with a metal baton, another blasted him with chemical spray, and two others punched and kneed him in the parking lot outside his apartment, Houston said.
