The New York City Police Department has suspended an officer who was filmed on Sunday using a banned chokehold on an African American man named Ricky Bellevue. Video has gone viral showing four officers on top of the man as bystanders screamed, “Quit choking him!” Bellevue, who has a history of mental illness, lost consciousness during the arrest. Mayor Bill de Blasio praised the suspension of the officer, tweeting this was “the fastest I have EVER seen the NYPD act to discipline an officer.”
