Syracuse police chief shows body cam footage, explains arrest caught on video 

Guy: the cops safely and quickly put him in hand cuffs Cops: *squeezing the back of his neck and kneeling on his head*

All of this because someone is playing a factory radio? Chief should be fired.

They acted like this because he refused to give up is rights not his hands

I always hate when officers put their knee on somebody’s neck , that’s so dangerous

HERE IS YOUR TRUE UNCLE TOM Chief Kenton Buckner ! WOW .

The music was just the excuse, race soldiers doing their thing.

why is this guy being pulled out of his car for loud music???? give him a ticket and move on! this is blatant harassment by police

Chief should quit,if he thinks that the officers didn't do anything wrong

So if he was called there for a loud music complaint, and we don't hear loud music on the body cam, why was there an arrest? It sounds like the situation had already been resolved.

Let a panel of citizens judge if your officers obeyed the law or not. I'm sure it would be a whole different outcome. After all we pay your salary.

We investigated ourselves and found we did nothing wrong...

Have they asked the man to low down the sound and has he refused?

There are no good cops. How many example do you sheeple need!?

If he thinks the use of force was lawful..he needs to be stripped of his command.

He said the cops were disciplined.....but then said the use of force was warrented. I don't understand..if it wasn't the use of force that got them disciplined....what was it?

The most dangerous thing in the world isn’t guns and bombs.. it’s loud music

Wtf! You cooperate by pulling over... you cooperate by handing over license. There is no reason to be asked to get out of car but chief says that is a lawful order. Cop: cyou wanna step out of car for me?" Man: "no".... why ask as an option!

Why tf they arresting him for a citation?

When did a "ticket" become a "form of arrest"?! Lawsuit is in order for false imprisonment and assult, locc those pigs up! Illegal detainment and bodily injury!!

Wrong, wrong, wrong,..... We listen to our gospel music loud all the time. Kids songs loud all the time....you mean to tell me that you will snatch me out of my car over some music!?!? Loud music is not an arrestable offense, so why make me get out of my vehicle!? It's hey, I pulled you over because your music is too loud, A. I will write you a citation...or B. I will let you off with a warning....If a brown chief won't hold these purple people eaters accountable for their actions, then no is zero hope.

Fire the Chief. Are my taxes really going into the pockets of cops like this. Loud music during the day. Not even at night. And no complaints. The problem is the chief wants to get the backs of his officers. There is not supposed to be a brotherhood in the law enforcement world. Having a brotherhood forces you to put your morals and ethics at risk to protect your so called brother!!!

How can they force you out over a noise violation?

Wow Kenton...hope your parents aren't alive to see you making that statement.

Does this look bad? Yes putting someone in handcuff is not pretty. Is it legal? Yup under Pennsylvania vs mimms. Can passangers be ordered out? Yup under Maryland vs wilson So the one that refused the lawful order is the suspect. Also if police know if they are being racist and stuff why would he reveal it to the public. They would be self incrimitating themselves if they are revealing their own misondict bodycam.

Why mash a citizens head into concrete.

They cut some of that video smh they will do anything to save there a**

The officer was on the mans neck just like George Floyd 😔

Send complaints on their complaint page....flood them !!!

They'll do or say anything to escalate the situation.

do you not know the law. officers must always state why ! prior to a lawful order. and failure to comply is a secondary offence and can only be implemented after the infraction is stated clearly and understood so one can comply. Not just get out of the car.. people have a right to no to police after a supervisor is requested the stop is in past particle (frozen - no action) till a supervisor shows up and explains why then comply or be arrested. This is the law so you cant suspect a person of a crime without an actual crime .. using a minor offence to tag people in the system is unethical and you are not suppose to do drive through .. 5 min or its free .. law enforcement... . This is not bad training ... this was taught ..Disappointed

Handcuffs for loud music... sounds legit. FTP!

Cops being cops. Police lie then kill, then lie then choke, then lie then assault, then lie then taze, then lie etc.........

Anything they did or could have done would have been excused.

Loud music does not justify being forced outta the vehicle

“Call Your Sergeant”

This is complete bullshit. There no reason to pull someone out the car for music. Thats what the ticket is for. If the officer already gave a ticket there was no reason to ask the man to step out, he should have been allowed to drive off like everyone else who receives ticket. Then he would have had to appear in court anyway to either pay it or talk to the judge, the stop could have been so easy if the officers didn't escalate the situation. Part of their job is de-escalate situations but all these police chiefs seem to forget that part. The order was not lawful because he wasnt doing anything illegal their use of force and arrest were unlawful and the cop should be fired.

Why do people have to be removed and handcuffed for a traffic violation?

Speeding you don't have to get out of your car running a red light you don't have to get out of your car. But playing loud music is a much more serious crime. This was just another cop trying to show his power you're going to do what I say no matter what the circumstance. You drop a candy bar wrapper out of your window I tell you to get out. you better listen to me.

"Our new policy will be began with please and end with thank you even if they are in the right."

For loud music????? No, Commissioner, that is not something that would warrant removing a citizen from their vehicle. WTF???

WE NEED TO DEFEND OURSELVES, PIGS NEED TO BE PUT DOWN IN THE STREETS!!!!

We investigated ourselves and determined we are great

The chief should remember that he is black and one day the ways that the police treated these men his family is going to be treated by other cops

We reviewed ourselves and determined we did nothing wrong.

Let me tell you how to solve these problems we need to start getting these police chiefs that never see anything wrong out of Office. It's just like any job you can't do no more than what your boss allows.

For loud music. Geez man

No surprise a cop say a cop didn't break the lie

What a cop out, what disciplinary action a day off without pay, told bad boy, don’t do it it again

Chief failed as a human being. Why can’t people behave themselves these days

keep there record privat so how do you know if they are bad or good officer

This police officer clearly did not follow the right procedures at all test police chief needs to be fired from his position ASAP

LOL...Cops evaluating Cops and come up with they did nothing wrong. This is why there are more and more Citizen Review boards being developed. The more citizens see how Cops treat people (then cover for each other), the more power the boards will get.

The cops violated this guy rights there’s point blank period

Bruh it’s loud music don’t let the dial turn so high if it’s illegal? That’s how them shits be manufactured bruh

Why did he need to exit the car,what had he done?

Here is a idea....OBEY THE FUCKIN LAW!!

Why is it that when anyone else get arrested or being investigated there are no confidentiality laws (unless it's a minor)?! The person arrested name, address, photo and criminal history is out there for the world to see, but when it's the police everything is confidential. Law enforcement have their priorities screwed up, instead of being focused on serving & protecting citizens they're too focused on serving & protecting each other. In my field it's all about the families we serve and I take it very seriously & I take it personally when anyone in my field do anything unethical, disrespectful because it makes everyone in the field look bad plus the community trusts us.

Again training in the wrong way. Telling anyone what to do and demanding then giving hands on is wrong. This nation is sick and the police are making a mockery of our system and the judges are allowing it! They all need to be fired and new people hired

how much longer do we have to keep putting up with this bull from them.

Black people shouldn't think emotionally we should think logic. If he played it right he'll be swimming in the bucks like Scrooge McDuck

Adopt a use of force policy when dealing with law enforcement

Seems pretty straightforward. Black kid subjected to treatment that white person would never be subjected to. And the clowns say, "He should have just gotten out of the car."

That wrong cop to hire he's post give ticket for loud music not arrest

There could be a 80 year old lady sitting outside enjoying her day then she has to hear music talking about sex, guns and death.. So give me one good fucking reason that it shouldnt be a law... Disturbance of peace is what i think.

why do they need to get out of the vehicle at any time for a traffic ticket.......... lock the doors and roll up windows

There's benefits on all sides with these bodycams.

I wonder if this cop has ever stopped a white person for playing “loud music”

Since when it's against the law to play loud music that's b*******

Their discipline wasn't close to what the civilians got for loud music uhh sounds they weren't arrested for their behavior yet music is more of a crime

So he was gunna arrest the man for having loud music? All of what they did to this man because of loud music? Cops are next level nowadays 😂

Average police training in the 4th World United States of America is...19 weeks Germany 130 weeks Ireland 26 weeks at college 18 months under supervision The amount of Civilians shot and killed in the Republic of Ireland 8 in 15 years all were either Disident Republicans or Bank Robbers Our population is approaching 6 million Irish citizen On a side note it takes on average 18 months to get a gun license

Where's the part of the video where the gentleman is struck about the head and face? I couldn't get a solid count but he struck him roughly eight times. go watch the cellphone video of this incident, they stripped all of the incriminating content from the video.

I can’t believe that people don’t ask the question of why the officer asked the driver to exit the car. Was the request appropriate for the circumstance? That is the entire reason for the driver to decline leaving the vehicle. This is racial profiling.

He should catch that cop outside always want to smash someones head on the ground with backup lolll we need a mma TV show called revenge where you could fight the cop who screwed you over lol

Quickly and safely ? For who ? For coward cops

What was the reason for them to ask him out of the car??was it a felony stop so police can just pull you out the car for loud music??what the reason for that??ir it’s for the music why pull him out of the car????

It doesn't show when they harrassed the guy

I get him not complying. He should've but can we take a moment to just- why does he need to get out? It's about music, not a fucking drug search.

These police officers needs to be punished. When I mean.punished, citizens need to start putting their hands back on these cowards.

Arrest for music come on bruh give him the ticket and leave

I don’t know why people don’t exit the car, it’s no going to make you look more innocent.

For music playing?

I just feel if the officer stated a reason for why then the situation wouldn’t have escalated more although he still didn’t need to get out a reason for why the officer wanted that to happen would make the process easier. Also look at the plea deals the DA wants to give him one wants to give him 3 years of probation if he apologizes for trying to deface the cops

Bullshit law suit what crime did he commit??? Loud music is not a crime

sO THE cHEIF IS HIDING ANY OFFENCES THESE COPS MAY HAVE DONE? IS THIS FUCKING SERIOUS?

Wow I think we need to use the says that they use against us. If you don't have anything to hide why can't his personal records be seen. If this officers behavior is a problem then we should be aware of the criminal that is within a protected gang.

This black should be ashamed of himself

Music is dangerous!!!!!

It is of my opinion that the term "Use of Force" should actually be called what it really is "Use of Violence"🐽🐽🐽

What happen to just the ticket..why the fu k should he have to be locked up..

I hope these brothers vote or get registered to vote.

BULL SHYT!!! for music?? it's a ticket and warning at best

Fire those pigs.

No I hope this guy Sue's you and the killer cops! Why should they get out of a car! For a ticket! Change your policy or get out of our communities!! The only reason why this guy did not get shot or killed is because the camera was on! Stop playing games clown!!! Dont over reach over do your job! Civil servants that's why the distrust will continue do what you need to do be honest and stop over doing your jobs! Why did he have get out of the car? Because he said no! That's why. People wake up! Sue them! I would...sue sue sue people wake up!!

Follow a lawful order and you'll be aiiigghht. It's usually the stubborn crickets who refuse to get out.

They got mad cause he did not give consent to search the car why was that cut out of the body cam??wow so if I invoke my rights I’m getting pulled out the car bs that why I have mini cameras all in my car and dash cam and glasses that have cameras so everything is recording all action or the situation from way before the stop

all over some music smh Why tf is he getting ARRESTED over a ticket as petty as that? Just cause he didn't immediately step out? Boo fucking hoo, stop using brute force when it isn't necessary, plain and simple. Guy wasn't being hostile or violent, he simply didn't want to step out, which is understandable. I'm sure he felt targetted and worried that things would go south, and sure enough, they did

Sad! Just plain sad! I hope they pull his brothers, sons or nephews out of their vehicles.

Over music?

Those who never served in the law enforcement, shall remain silent.
