New Video Shows Police Kicking Handcuffed Black Teen in Tulsa After Arrest for Jaywalking
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Tulsa, Oklahoma, new video has emerged showing a white police officer
kicking a Black teenager as he sat handcuffed in the back of a patrol
car, then pulling the child from the vehicle and throwing him violently
against the pavement. The boy was one of two African American teens
detained by police on June 4 for allegedly "improperly walking along the
roadway" along a quiet residential street with no sidewalk.
