Chilling Video Shows Cop Aiming Gun At Black Family After Girl, 4, Takes Doll From Store

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING A disturbing video captured a Phoenix police officer aiming a gun, yelling obscenities and threatening to shoot a black family after their 4-year-old daughter walked out of a store with a doll last month. Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego reacted in a statement Saturday that “there is no situation in which this behavior is ever close to acceptable.” Police Chief Jeri Williams launched an investigation into the confrontation after recently receiving the video that was recorded by a bystander. He yelled repeatedly: “Get out of the fucking car.” Then: I’m going to shoot you in your fucking face.” He also warned: “I’m gonna put a cap right in your fucking head.” At one point a tearful Harper pleads: “Don’t point it at my kids.” According to the couple’s account, Ames was shoved to the pavement by an officer as he exited the car and handcuffed.
