Description

** (Disclaimer: This video content is intended for educational and informational purposes only) **
A Brooklyn, Ohio Police officer's body camera was rolling as a routine traffic stop turned violent. Police officer Thomas LaForce pulled over 34-year-old Thomas LaForce vehicle and recognized him as the suspect. But as the officer tried to remove him from the vehicle, Laforce sped away, dragging the officer with him. Police began chasing LaForce, who was weaving in and out of traffic. The officer catches up to him and rams his cruiser into the suspect's van. Multiple officers surround the van and start smashing out the window.  Charges are now pending against LaForce who was taken to MetroHealth Medical Center for treatment. Two officers were treated for minor injuries and released. LaForce faces charges of felonious assault on a police officer and fleeing and eluding.
