An Atlanta police officer seen kicking a woman lying on the ground in the head is off the street, along with the other officer on the scene at the time. Sgt. Marc Theodule and Officer Bridge Citizen were suspended as the Atlanta Police Department described the actions of Theodule, who kicked the woman, as “unacceptable,” and his suspension is without pay.
“Upon reviewing the video, the actions of the sergeant appear to be unacceptable and we are also concerned with the apparent lack of reaction from another officer present during the incident,” a statement from the APD says.
