Dashcam captures assault on MI police officer

(Raw Video)

Police dashcam video shows what appears to be a Kentwood, Michigan officer being assaulted during a traffic stop.

It was June 4 when officers pulled over a pickup truck near the I-96 overpass.

Kentwood Police Chief Richard Mattice said the driver was weaving on the road and his vehicle had a cracked windshield.

The video shows an officer and a sheriff's deputy leading the man away from his vehicle.

The man appears to struggle, and while on the ground swung his arm towards the deputy.

The man was then tasered and put in a patrol car.

He argued with officers about his vehicle's cracked windshield and then head butted the back glass of the patrol car.

The man is facing charges for resisting an officer.
