2 police encounters under investigation in Houston area
A Houston Police Department officer and several Harris County Sheriff deputies are being investigated after videos were shared on social media.
Houston rapper Trae Tha Truth shared one of the videos on his Instagram page a few days ago. The video taken at a gas station located in the 12300 block of the Eastex Freeway has since been viewed more than 259,000 times.
It shows multiple deputies trying to arrest a woman who the sheriff’s office said was resisting and had a warrant out for her arrest for assaulting a nurse at Memorial Hermann. In the video, one of the deputies could be seen punching the woman several times and even kneeing her.
