Police Deny Medical Treatment - Take Black Men to Garage From [HERE] and [HERE] Two brothers have filed a formal complaint against a Washington police department, claiming officers used unnecessary force when arresting them on trumped-up charges, then refused them medical treatment in an effort to cover the assault. The incident in Tukwila, Wash., south of Seattle, was caught on dashcam video.

Brothers Charles Chappelle and Jahmez Amili were walking down a dark street in May when a Tukwila patrol car pulled up. Police said the two men were acting erratically and appeared intoxicated. The dashcam captures two officers pouncing on the brothers, throwing them to the ground Officers claim the men resisted arrest, but the video shows them raising their hands before officers approached.

The two brothers, Charles Chappelle and Jahmez Amili, say it all happened so fast. “I didn’t have an idea it was going on,” Amili, 29, said. “I couldn’t believe he just started punching me,” he told KIRO-TV. Chappelle could clearly be seen with his arms in the air before an officer tackled him.

 The video shows Chappelle holding his hands up. And with the video slowed down, you can even see him start to go to the ground before the officer gets to him.
