SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - The San Diego Police Department is investigating a takedown involving two officers and an apparent homeless man.
Nicole Bansal took the video at the intersection of the La Jolla Village Drive and Torrey Pines Road around 9 a.m. Wednesday. I was pulling up to the intersection; a cop car came up fast behind me, two men- cops- jumped out of the car and immediately went towards this unhoused homeless man, she said. The immediate reaction for cops to start trying to arrest him or take him down, it s just shocking. That s why I immediately pulled out my phone and started recording.
About an hour after commending the Derek Chauvin verdict in a statement sent to local media outlets, San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria took to a dispatch radio to broadcast a second speech this one for the city’s police officers.
“Justice was served today against someone who does not represent you, or us, or our department, or who we are as a nation,” he told them.

“Colleagues, this is Mayor Todd Gloria. I want to address each and every single one of you who nobly serve our great City. Today’s verdict is just the beginning of building a deeper trust with our community.
