There have been several incidents in the past when a police officer made a violent arrest. In July, a video of a California woman, who was arrested in a similar manner went viral. Juanita Mendez-Medrano, 52, who worked as street side flower vendor, was arrested after she refused to cooperate with a police officer.

Police were patrolling the area due to a function in a nearby school, an official statement by Riverside County Sheriff's Department said. The video had sparked outrage among people.

In June, a video emerged where a driver could be seen getting dragged from his vehicle. He was punched several times and also kneed by a police officer over a traffic violation in Minnesota. The state unit of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) termed the incident a "disturbing and completely unnecessary” example of excessive use of force, according to the Guardian. The officer was also said to have abused the driver.

“I had no idea what was going on when I was approached and attacked by this officer,” Anthony Promvongsa, the driver seen in the 2016 footage, told the ACLU.

In May, a cellphone video of a teenager's arrest in Texas showed a police officer beating the girl; however, the allegations were dismissed by the police department. The police and the teen's family had their own versions of the incident. While police said it was the girl who assaulted one of their officers, the family insisted the video showed it was the police and not the girl, who punched, CNN reported.
