"The violence used by NYPD officers in this video is extremely disturbing and unacceptable. Officers should never treat a person this way. The NYPD is conducting a full investigation."
"It is upsetting to view. We'll have more to say about it as that investigation unfolds. I understand the community interest in it."
Two NYPD officers were placed on modified duty after a video showed them repeatedly punching a suspect who resisted arrest in a Brooklyn liquor store. The incident, which involved the officers crashing into a display of wine bottles, is under investigation by the NYPD Internal Affairs Bureau. Mayor Mamdani and NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch condemned the violence, stating it was unacceptable. The suspect, who matched a description of a drug buyer, was not charged with drug possession but received a desk appearance ticket for resisting arrest.
