Full dash-cam video from squad car of Worthington police Sgt. Tim Gaul from the 2016 arrest of Anthony Promvongsa, according to the ACLU of Minnesota, which released the video June 22, 2017, in alleging excessive force by another officer in the arrest.

According to the criminal complaint, Worthington Police Officer Colby Palmersheim was driving his squad car when Promvongsa pulled up behind him "at a high rate of speed. Promvongsa was so close that Palmersheim could not see the hood of Promvongsa's vehicle."

"I had no idea what was going on when I was approached and attacked by this officer,” Promvongsa said in a statement. “I did not even have the opportunity to take off my seatbelt before I was literally blindsided with this unnecessary attack. I immediately pulled over for the Worthington squad car and before I knew what was happening I was beat and ripped from my vehicle."

$Accountability at Skokie PD After Facial Fracture? UPDATE: On Nov 15th, 2013, less than two weeks after this video went live, Michael Hart resigned (rather than be fired). The 2013 Police Accountability Tour stops in Skokie, Illinois to followup on the case of Cassandra Feuerstein, who was seriously injured while in the custody of officer Michael Hart. In an incident that occurred on March 10 2013, Hart became upset that he was having difficulty photographing Feuerstein, and can be seen in a video released on October 9 grabbing and shoving her before leading her to a cell that she was forcibly thrown into. She landed face first into a concrete bench, resulting in facial fractures, a large open wound, and displaced teeth. Hart remained on regular police duties until the release of the video by Feuersteins attorney seven months later. He was then placed on desk duty, and following a groundswell of public outcry, criminal charges were finally filed against him on October 30, at which time he was placed on paid leave. While village officials cite both an internal and external investigation in progress, Hart is being prosecuted by a states attorney infamous for her partiality to police employees during disputes with the public. States attorney Anita Alvarez fought court battles as well as aiding in lobbying efforts to keep unconstitutional statutes on the books in Illinois that criminalize the videorecording of police. Hart is facing felony charges of aggravated battery and official misconduct. In this video, Pete and Garret speak with Terry Shiel of Skokie PD, Skokie village Administrative Secretary Carrie Haberstich, and Phyllis Kaplan of the Mayors office. Filmed in Skokie, Illinois on Monday, November 04 2013.
