iStock/ChiccoDodiFC(NEW YORK) Tippecanoe County prosecutor Patrick Harrington is calling for the Indiana State Police to investigate an alleged incident caught on video that showed a Purdue University police officer with his elbow pressed against the neck and face of a Black student in the snow. Purdue student Adonis Tuggle told ABC News he and his girlfriend were driving to his apartment from Purdue's recreational center on Feb. 4 when they began to have a "disagreement." He said they pulled over and were arguing on the side of the road when Purdue University police officer Jon Selke and other officers arrived. Officers were called to the south side of the campus after a bystander made an "urgent" call to police saying it appeared a woman was being held against her will, Purdue University police chief John Cox said in a statement. According to Tuggle, 24, their argument was over a "minimal topic," and the police did not need to get involved. "
