State Troopers Arrested After Beating Unarmed Motorist on Video

‘Caught on video attacking an unarmed 50-year-old man who had already surrendered and was complying with their orders, two state troopers were arrested this week and charged with multiple counts of assault. Although at least seven officers appeared in the video, none of them attempted to stop their fellow troopers from viciously beating the compliant suspect.
On May 11, a Sky5 helicopter video captured the end of a police pursuit as 50-year-old Richard Simone’s pickup truck halted at the end of a cul-de-sac. According to the Massachusetts State Police, Simone failed to stop when troopers initially attempted to pull him over in connection with an advisory issued by another department. Leading officers on a one-hour chase from Holden, Massachusetts to Nashua, New Hampshire, Simone eventually drove his truck into a dead end and became trapped.’
