Ohio officer caught using taser on 11-year-old girl: "This is why there aren't any grocery stores in the black community"
Officer Ken Brown was found to have violated department policy after using a taser on an 11-year-old girl at a Kroger Store.
An Ohio officer who used a taser on an 11-year-old girl accused of shoplifting has violated the department's policy, say the Cincinnati police. Officer Ken Brown was caught on camera using the device on the girl at around 9.30 pm this past Monday, with officers suggesting that the taser was only used after the girl resisted arrest and tried to run away.
Just a few moments after using the taser to restrain the 11-year-old, the officer escorted her back into the Kroger store on Kenard Avenue where she and two other juveniles conspired to steal more than $50 worth food and clothing. In the footage, the child can be heard asking, "Can I call my mama," to which Brown replies by saying, "I'm going to call your mama. Come on, let's go."
