(Watch) Rotterdam New York, Police Filmed Breaking Teen’s Arm While On The School Bus
It’s become an epidemic, police brutalizing members of our communities for no reason at all.
Look at these two beafy police officers threatening and then breaking this teens arm, is this what we expect out of our public servents? If not, then why are people not protesting this kind of behaviour?
It all started in the driveway of the teen’s family home. Jacob Gocheski walked onto the bus and allegedly begun making threats in an aggressive manner. That was when the bus driver and Gocheski’s mom told him to get off the bus. For more than 20 minutes, both tried numerous times to get Gocheski off the bus with no luck. That’s when they called the police.
The two officers had difficulty getting him to respond, so after they threatened Gocheski with physical harm, they used physical force to pull him off the bus. One of the officers locked Jacob’s arm and used enough force that he snapped one of the strongest bones in the human body. The sound of the bone snapping is clearly audible in the video.
An X-ray of the teenager’s left arm was released that showed a gruesome break and a shattered bone midway up the bicep.
Rotterdam Police Chief James Hamilton said a review of the incident determined that “officers followed department protocol and procedures”. Meanwhile, Jacob Gocheski was charged with obstructing governmental administration in the second degree and a misdemeanor.
