This isn't new (about a year old), but it's new to me.

Supposedly, they went after the kids for being in the road too much, but notice the officers leaving the road, crossing the sidewalk, and headed up into the grass:

And now, even farther, before finding a young girl to harass:

Her leg isn't supposed to bend that way, but at least he has mace ready for those other "terrorist" kids:

I'm thinking three cops is enough to handle one girl (now, with 1.5 legs):

The beauty of digital cameras, camera phones and the internet, at least people who get out of hand with power and ruin it for the rest of the police in this country can be held accountable.

Notice the cop who is about to blast, with pepper spray, the person who is photographing the scene.

I don't see any pictures of the street in that montage, though.
Also, there is no sound to accompany those pictures, for all we know, she could have been making bodily threats to the officers in question.

Regardless, she doesn't deserve to have her leg broken, being taken into custody.
