Jersey City,NJ : Video shows cops kicking innocent victim after fiery crash on June, Sunday 4th 2017

Officials have “serious concerns” about a video of New Jersey police officers kicking and dragging a man who was an innocent victim in a fiery crash.

The incident came after a police chase Sunday night in Jersey City where officers tried to stop a vehicle driven by 48-year-old Leo Pinkston. Police fired multiple bullets at Pinkston’s vehicle, but the pursuit ended when he crashed into a utility pole and caused a fire, NJ.com reported.

In the video, another driver whose car was also wrecked in the crash emerges on fire from the burning vehicle. When he rolls on the ground to put out the flames, a police officer starts repeatedly kicking the innocent victim, as others stomp on him.

“Our investigators have reviewed the video and we believe with certainty that this man is the bystander from West New York who suffered burns, not Leo Pinkston, the individual pursued by police,” Hudson County Prosecutor Esther Suarez said in a statement.
