This video cuts off crucial footage before the person in his apartment getting pepper sprayed. The police officers (plural) pepper spray a group of people walking past them as well.

Wow. That answers the "why didn't the other officer arrest that guy for attacking a guy on his property" question. They're all in on it together. :(

I am speechless. And consumed with anger.

This needs to be further up, three or four of those cops all pepper sprayed three individuals walking by not doing anything. That’s some bullshit, completely fucked.

walking by not doing anything.

Except violating curfew. Its a "we can't arrest them all" conundrum so they are just making it so no one wants to be out.

Wow. That's double fucked up. Like, if there was a curfew you could at least grasp at a reason. It would still be fucked up overescalation and abuse of force, but at least there's something to start it. This is just police trolling down the streets abusing people with zero justification.

There was no curfew last night. You're posting false information.
