A police officer has been fired after he was caught on camera punching a woman squarely in the face while she was handcuffed.
Former Loveland Officer Russell Maranto, 28, punched Angelia Hall, 59, in the mouth while she was detained in a hospital emergency room.
In the footage, Hall can be heard becoming increasingly frustrated and angry as she sits in an examination chair while cursing and yelling at the officers and nurses who were present.
But it was when she spat at Maranto that he immediately reacted by punching her.
Another officer in the room intervened and pulled Maranto away from Hall.

I want him on my police force.
They go through all this training to have BETTER control. And they get the benefit of all the laws. They should be better.
And what did the police do to stop BLM rioters in 2020?
And then what did the police do to the people who tried to stop the BLM rioters in 2020?
Like I said, they protect the criminals and persecute people like Kyle Rittenhouse who kill child molesting rioters.
The perp assaulted him. She’s lucky she didn’t get a faceful of toilet and multiple swirlies, or an intimate visit with a spittoon.
That’s because we allowed the political system to be overrun by cockroaches.
But I repeat. I am looking forward to you having no police and being surrounded by illegal MS-13 invaders and convicts who have been released by Soros’ DAs and judges.
I would welcome an attack by MS-13 at our ranch.
Our hogs will enjoy the treat!
Oh, really? Great, I’m surrounded!
