SMH: Sarasota Police Taze The Sh*t Out Of A Black Man In Front Of His Kids After Responding To A Call From His Fiancee That He Was Vomiting!

Black activists came together against police brutality and called for the firing of two officers after the brutal videotaped arrest of a Black man in Sarasota, Florida. Black Lives Matter Manasota held a protest for Chad Washington, a 35-year-old man who was violently restrained and tasered by Sarasota police and then charged with assaulting officers. The group released a portion of the video of Washington’s arrest, taking place in front of his children at his home.

Two police officers punched, choked and kicked Washington Thursday night after his fiancée called 911 about the man vomiting and foaming at the mouth, Washington’s fiancée, Darnesha McMillan, told the Bradenton Herald, a Florida newspaper. Officers made their way into Washington’s home and arrived before paramedics, McMillan said, adding that their five children were home at the time.

Cops, who were not called to the home, also tasered the man for 15 minutes, she explained. "He never hit an officer," McMillan said in her statement. "Instead of them coming to help, they came to brutalize and use excessive force out of fear of him being a black male."
