Cellphone video shows members of a crowd jostling a police officer in Tennessee on Tuesday as he attempted to arrest a man suspected of assaulting a woman, authorities said.
Shortly after 6 p.m., Officer Matthew Cammarn witnessed the alleged assault by 22-year-old Brian Shannon near the intersection of South 7th and Sylvan Streets, according to a statement from the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department.
The suspect aggressively walked up to the officer, who told him to put his hands behind his back and attempted to take him into custody, the statement said. Shannon allegedly pulled away, grabbed Cammarn and pulled him to the ground.
As the 22-year-old actively fought and swung his fists at the officer, members of a gathered crowd pulled and pushed Cammarn in an effort to free the suspect, police said. The incident was captured in a disturbing cellphone video.
Shannon stood up and ran to South 6th Street, where he was apprehended, according to the statement. Online records showed he was jailed on suspicion of felony aggravated assault on a police officer, resisting arrest, evading arrest, criminal trespassing, disorderly conduct and drug possession.
A 17-year-old boy, suspected of aggravated assault on an officer and evading arrest, was also taken into custody in connection with the recorded altercation, the news release said.
The condition of the alleged assault victim was unknown. Cammarn, the Police Departments 2015 officer of the year, was released from a hospital Tuesday evening after being treated for a head injury sustained in the incident, the statement said.
Spooky video.When ORCS attack.
I guess the peeps are okay with murders, rapes and beatings in their communities.
Looks like Memphis.
Sons of zer0 just unlaxin and getin’ whitey
Look at the area where he video was made.They live like animals.Even the lawn is destroyed.
Note to self: avoid ferals wherever they may be. Also, remain heavily armed.
By the lack of words do we know the perps.
The MSM drive by clowns are soooooo predictable.
A preview of things to come.
Black Privilege at work.
Once police stop going into black neighborhoods to do their job, then it will be just gangs controlling the streets, and it will serve them right for attacking the police.
I say, let the Po-Po pull out of the community. Let the peeps fend for themselves, then we’ll see how much Black Lies Matter to them.
Sick animals. The cops needs to stay out of that area when they are called in for help and lets see what happens.
Blacks from Africa are very successful like Asian immigrants when they come to America.
Those raised in especially the WELFARE STATE are often just off the hook.
I was raised in Brooklyn before my high school years. People kind of self segregated. Their were small fights from block to block, but the black kids were WAY MORE VIOLENT.
Is it the lack of responsible dad’s, unrealistic expectations of success without preparation?
Has a few generations of pot, booze and other drugs ruined some brains of their young.
They seem to be a backwards culture within the mainstream culture and Lord knows their are lots of black moms doing their best and praying their hearts out for some better outcome.
Maybe Oprah said it best, SUCCESS IS PREPARING TO BE READY FOR OPORTUNITY IN LIFE.
There is no preparation for success in some of these communities.
It's the cop's fault, whitey's fault, the knife's fault, the weather's fault, and (as a general thing) the fault of anything in the universe but themselves, no matter what the situation.
At least our home-grown dirtheads leave out race when they recite their litany of excuses/blame.
Mr. niteowl77
And no doubt the Grievance Industry will take up this poor, oppressed youth’s cause, demanding to know why he was singled out for arrest just because he raped a woman and beat up a cop. “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” and all that, ya know.
Maybe it’s time Pelosi and Hairy Red revive the Democrat’s arguably racist idea to “throw ‘em a basketball” to distract them from their criminal tendencies.
How can any man function in a job with those long
dreadlocks flying around everywhere? - Having said that,
that policeman stuck to his job & gave as good as he got
from the perps. - IF the police cease & desist as the
BLM people claim they want; total chaos will ensue in
the Negro community. Negro. Yes. There is NOTHING
nasty about that name for a race of people. The fact
they’re insulted about it makes as much sense as me
being bent out of shape at being called “Caucasian”.
Easy, mang.
