Cell phone video shot yesterday on the 145th Street subway platform in Harlem shows a group of NYPD officers terrorizing a little boy for allegedly selling candy.

The child, who cannot be more than 10 years old, is shown crying, as the police detain him, kick the bags of candy and chips he was carrying along the subway platform, then drag him up the subway stairs.

Oh and, yes, during a pandemic.
CW: Police violence.

This is the second part of the cell phone video.

Thanks so much to Shaquan Jenkins (@justwubbzy) who bore witness to and filmed this incident.

Here is the third part of Shaquan's cell phone video from Friday. It shows the end of the encounter where police arrested a man who came to the little boy's defense.
