US policeman punches woman: Hope this never happens in S'pore
STOMPer aber came across this video online where a police officer in Seattle punched a girl in the face for trying to stop him from arresting her friend. The STOMPer wonders how Singaporeans would react if this incident happened here.
The girl's friend could also be seen in the video screaming and struggling to break away from the officer's grip.
According to news reports, the two girls, 17- and 19-years-old respectively, were caught jaywalking across the street by the officer. He attempted to handcuff the 19-year-old who then showed resistance. Upon seeing her friend in trouble, the 17-year-old girl tried to stop the officer and received a punch in the face.
The STOMPer commented:
"This incident happened in Seattle.
"Who is right and who is wrong?
"If this were to happen in Singapore, how would we react?"
STOMP is currently processing the video.
