Portland Avenue Footage - Child Being Restrained
Channel: Rochester PAB
Date: 2021-03-05

On February 22, RPD officers peppersprayed a woman who was with her three year old toddler. The RPD has released video footage of that incident, including this recording of BWC footage. This footage shows that, with the toddler crying inconsolably and screaming for her mother, an officer restraining the child persuades another to use a car to “block” the child from public view because, “It doesn’t look good that I have to restrain, like, a three year old.”
