Twitter least one Miami-Dade police officer is facing discipline after he was captured on body-camera footage brutally striking a Black woman in her face as she yelled at him at Miami International Airport.
In the video, the woman, who was not wearing a mask, could be seen berating the officer, clearly angry about something.
The woman then gets in the masked officer’s face, and could be heard screaming “You acting like you White when you really Black….
Although the woman did step in close to the officer’s face, no headbutt was shown in the video provided.
Miami-Dade Police Director Alfredo Ramirez appeared to speak out on the incident in a series of tweets, noting that he has ordered that “the involved officers be relieved of duty,” and that State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle investigate the use of force in the incident.
