BRIDGEWATER, New Jersey -- A viral video of police responding to a fight between two teenagers at the Bridgewater Commons Mall in New Jersey over the weekend has drawn outrage and prompted an internal investigation over the officer's apparent treatment of the Black teenager.
In the video, the female officer sits the other teen who exchanged punches on the sofa and then appears to put her knee on Kye's neck as she assists the male officer in handcuffing him. "We recognize that this video has made members of our community upset and are calling for an internal affairs investigation," police said, urging anyone with additional videos of the incident to share them with law enforcement.
