Activists are calling for Officer Christopher Lange to face disciplinary action after the incident inside an Aldi store in Minneapolis.
"Officer Lange escalated the situation," the person filming says as the arrest takes place, with two other officers joining Lange."This man was having a conversation with someone else, no pushing, no shoving, no physical interaction occurred until Officer Lange initiated the physical action as seen in this video."Conduct Review is evaluating the matter, a spokesman for the Minneapolis Police Department said.
"One of the parties started to actively resist the officer after being told to leave and still actively resisted when informed he was under arrest," the report says, according to KARE11."The male was arrested and booked at the Hennepin County Jail." Demonstrators march against racism and police brutality and to defund the Minneapolis Police Department on June 6, 2020 in Minneapolis, Minnesota.However, the video of the incident has prompted activists to call for Lange to face immediate disciplinary action.
Lange has been investigated for misconduct five times since 2019, according to the organization."We demand that he be immediately fired or placed on administrative leave pending the results of a swift investigation into his actions,' the statement added."It is simply unacceptable to allow an officer with such a history of abuse to continue serving the residents of Minneapolis.
