## Transcript

A police officer in Texas has been suspended after a video posted online shows him yelling at young people and pinning a girl to the ground at a pool party. Police say they responded to a disturbance call Friday evening at a community pool in McKinney, Texas after a fight reportedly broke out. When officers arrived, crowds dispersed. One unnamed officer starting yelling commands at several people, forced a young girl to the ground and placed her in handcuffs. The officer also appeared to pull out his gun at one point and aim it at bystanders. The McKinney Police Department released a statement saying officers responded to a disturbance involving multiple juveniles at the location who do not live in the area or have permission to be there, refusing to leave.

Police say nine additional units eventually responded to the scene to help maintain control of the area. Brandon Brooks, the 15 year old who recorded the video told Buzzfeed many students have been out Celebrating school being out at the community pool and were there on guest passes. Brooks said I think a bunch of white parents were angry that a bunch of black kids who don't live in the neighborhood were in the pool. The McKinney Police Department has launched an investigation into the incident.
