Report Copyright Violation | Cop Steps in Dog Poop, Teen Makes Joke About It And Gets Arrested And Beaten [ link to 12160.info] Tyre Davis said his offhand dog poop comment got him a disorderly conduct summons and a beating from two Bronx police officers.
A Bronx teen said two cops roughed him up when he mouthed off after one of them stepped in a pile of dog doo.
Officers Joseph Murphy, 26, and Jose Ocasio, 28, were charged Monday with assault, accused of beating up Tyre Davis, 17, outside a police stationhouse Feb. 18.
Davis, a senior at Brandeis High School in Manhattan, told the Daily News on Tuesday he was walking with a friend near E. 181st St. and Creston Ave. in Fordham Heights when the feces hit the fan.
"It smells like doo-doo," he remembers saying and then immediately regretting when he saw a uniformed cop scraping his shoe clean.
"I was like, 'Oh, man - why did I say that?'"Davis said.
At that point, he said other officers in an unmarked van nearby scolded him for making a joke, then handcuffed him and took him to the 46th Precinct.
He said Murphy and Ocasio followed him when he was released after getting a disorderly conduct summons and led him into an alley. One punched him in the right ear, the other in the forehead, he said.
Davis said he fell and hit his head on a brick wall during the 30-second attack. "I thought I was going to die," he said.Serve and protect uh? At least the scum have been charged with assault : [ link to abclocal.go.com] |
