Montgomery County officials want a hearing to look at county police discipline and procedures after a video showed two officers accosting, handcuffing and screaming at a 5-year-old boy last year.
In the 51-minute video of body camera footage, which police released on Thursday, two officers can be seen and heard accosting the child on Jan. 14, 2020. The boy had walked away from his class at East Silver Spring Elementary School.
