From [HERE] and [HERE] A raid on a marijuana dispensary in Long Beach was caught on video showing police officers smashing surveillance cameras and stepping on a suspect, moves that prompted accusations against the officers of excessive force. A black volunteer at the collective can be seen in the video below with his neck stomped on by one of the officers who raided the facility.

The video was posted to YouTube by user "Long Beach Raids" on July 1. The two-minute-long video opens to show a man surrendering to police, three of whom surround him while two put him in handcuffs. One of the officers is seen stepping on volunteer employee Dorian Brooks' back with both feet before stepping on his neck, with what Brooks described as 300 pounds of pressure.  Brooks, “told NBC Los Angeles that the amount of force used to arrest him was excessive and out-of-proportion considering the crime.” "They noticed there was a camera that was on the wall right above my head, so they proceeded to smash it with a metal rod," said Brooks, adding that the camera shattered on him. "I wasn't able to protect myeslf because my hands were cuffed." "I felt violated; I felt disrespected," Brooks said. 

He filed a claim seeking $1 million in damages from the city of Long Beach. The papers, which were filed July 5th, state that the raid was illegal and allege that the officers involved used excessive force. According to a report by the Huffington Post, employees of the dispensary are claiming $10,000 in damage and destruction of evidence in addition to allegations of police brutality.
