It happened Tuesday afternoon outside Accel Academy.
This is the second incident in less than a week showing physical altercations with Mobile Police.Former MPD Chief and current Chief of Staff James Barber believes the officer used excessive force.
Chief Barber says when he and Mobile Police Chief Paul Prine saw the video, immediate action was taken against the officer and an investigation was opened.“And just like all of ya’ll I saw what appears to be excessive force used by the officer in this case against a fairly small female,” Barber says.Chief Barber says the teen had an altercation with a school administrator leading up to her being escorted out.
“There was an altercation inside the school with one of the school administrators who then followed her out. The police told her to get her stuff,” Barber said. “Reported to the police that she had somehow assaulted him. The officer was in the process of arresting the juvenile when you saw the force used.”A physical altercation broke out and Dubose grabbed and squeezed the officer’s private parts during the struggle, documents say.
