Worcester Massachusetts Police said they will comment Monday on a video that surfaced on social media Sunday.

Two short video clips posted on Facebook appear to show police officers arresting two men near a white pickup truck in a parking lot on Southbridge Street.

One clip shows a subject struggle with an officer who takes the man to the ground as the officer begins to punch him in the head before the video stops.

The second video shows two men lying on the ground with two officers restraining them. An officer punches one of the men in the head while another runs over and begins repeatedly punching the same man in the head. Other officers rush to the scene with a total of six officers restraining the two men before the video stops.

The police log shows two men were arrested on Southbridge Street overnight. Zachary Lugo, 27, of Rutland, was arrested at 241 Southbridge St. and charged with trespassing, resisting arrest, disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace. Mitchell Lugo, 23, of Worcester, was charged with the same offenses, along with one count of a civil rights violation, also at 241 Southbridge St.

$Baltimore Officer Suspended After Violent Altercation Im not only pretty disturbed by the actions in this video, but by the officers wardrobe. He should be wearing these. https://amzn.to/2B4hYgr This video is published for educational and documentary purposes of a newsworthy event. It contains unedited raw footage of police interactions and may contain graphic content. It is left unedited in order to show the events that really happened. A Baltimore police officer was suspended with pay by the department Saturday after a viral video emerged showing him repeatedly punching a man in the face before taking him to the ground. Interim Police Commissioner Gary Tuggle said he was “deeply disturbed” by the video, and that the incident is under investigation. “The officer involved has been suspended while we investigate the totality of this incident,” Tuggle said. “Part of our investigation will be reviewing body worn camera footage.” Police said a second officer on the scene at the time of the incident was placed on administrative duties pending the outcome of the investigation. Attorney Warren Brown, who is representing the man who was punched, identified his client as Dashawn McGrier, 26. Brown said McGrier was not being charged with a crime, but was taken to a hospital and was having X-rays taken of his jaw, nose and ribs late Saturday for suspected fractures from the altercation. Brown said McGrier had a previous run-in with the same police officer — whom he identified as Officer Arthur Williams — in June that resulted in McGrier being charged with assaulting the officer, disorderly conduct, obstructing and hindering, and resisting arrest. Brown said that in that incident and in the one Saturday, McGrier was targeted without justification by the officer. “It seems like this officer had just decided that Dashawn was going to be his punching bag,” Brown said. “And this was a brutal attack that was degrading and demeaning to my client, to that community, and to the police department.” Williams could not be reached for comment. Tuggle did not identify the officer or the man who was punched, but the department said the officer has been on the force for just over a year. At Williams’ graduation from the police academy last year, he received awards for top performance, including for high marks in defense tactics, physical training and emergency vehicle operations,” for his academic achievement, professional attitude, appearance, ability to supervise,” and for his tireless and unwavering dedication and outstanding leadership ability,” according to a video of the graduation ceremony. The police department said the incident Saturday began after two officers stopped McGrier, let him go, then approached him again to give him a citizen contact sheet. “When he was asked for his identification, the situation escalated when he refused,” the department said. “The police officer then struck the man several times.” Brown said McGrier was sitting on steps when Williams passed by in his vehicle, then moments later was walking down the street when the officer, now on foot, told him to stop without giving him a reason. “My client was saying, ‘What is this all about? You don’t even have probable cause,’ ” Brown said. That’s when Williams began shoving McGrier, Brown said. hile I have an expectation that officers are out of their cars, on foot, and engaging citizens, I expect that it will be done professionally and constitutionally,” he said. “I have zero tolerance for behavior like I witnessed on the video today. Officers have a responsibility and duty to control their emotions in the most stressful of situations.” The incident occurred Saturday outside Q’s Bar and Liquors in the 2600 block of E. Monument St. in East Baltimore. The video shows the officer pushing McGrier against a wall, with his hand on McGrier’s chest, and then McGrier pushing the officer’s hand off his chest. It is then that the officer starts swinging. The officer throws repeated punches, shoves McGrier onto rowhouse steps and continues beating him until McGrier lands on the pavement. McGrier appears to be bleeding when he gets to the ground. McGrier appears to try to deflect some of the officer’s punches but does not punch back. A second officer, who the department did not identify, briefly places his hand on McGrier’s arm as McGrier tries to avoid the blows but does not appear to try to stop the first officer from throwing punches. Brown said Internal Affairs officers were at the hospital to speak with McGrier. Brown said he also had spoken with the office of Baltimore State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby. Mosby’s office did not respond to a request for comment. The police department said Mosby’s office “provided information related to this case,” but did not explain what that meant.$
