Old Town Fort Collins arrest video sparks social media stir
Jason Poh

A nine-second video went viral online Saturday showing a Fort Collins police officer throwing a 22-year-old woman — apparently face-first — to the brick pavers in Old Town.

Police maintain the arrest technique was relatively standard and the woman had already assaulted the officer.

Officers were dispatched Thursday night to reports of a "separated disturbance" between two men near Bondi Beach Bar in Old Town Fort Collins. While officers were gathering information from employees about the reported fight, the girlfriend of one of the suspects "shoulder-checked the bouncer and an officer and then pulled her boyfriend from the area," said Kate Kimble, Fort Collins police spokeswoman.

"The officers told her that her boyfriend was not free to leave but that she could go," Kimble said. "She remained at the scene, at which time she physically obstructed and struck an officer."

That's when Kimble said the officer used a "standard arrest control" to subdue the woman, identified through jail records and by police as 22-year-old Michaella Surat.

A bystander captured part of the incident on video and shared it online. The succinct clip shows what appears to be a scuffle between the woman and an officer in Old Town Square. A few seconds later, the woman and officer grapple before he brings her to the ground.

By midday Saturday, the video had been viewed or shared thousands of times on Twitter and Instagram.

The incident was also captured on body-worn cameras. All District 1 police officers wear the devices, and Fort Collins Police Services is in the process of outfitting every uniformed cop in the city with the cameras.

"As this is still an open case, body camera video is not being released at this time," Kimble said. A police supervisor will review the use of force to ensure the actions are within policy and training.

Officials on Saturday did not publicly identify the officer. ...

I'm hoping with social media this video will spread fear like wildfire. Maybe people will start to "respect law inforcement.

It could have other tragic results for LE as well. I am sure events like this impact those crazies that decide to strike back.

Police need to be policed just like the rest of the country. It is the lack of consequences for bad cops that fuel support for groups like BLM

Guess I dont, looks like the officer twists his arm behind his back for him if you ask me.

Regardless, grown men tazed in the nuts don't hit the ground as hard as she did.

Her face hit the ground before her legs lol, seems excessive to me.

You guys defending that cops actions are out of your minds. If that was my daughter I would want to meet that SOB somewhere man to man. Did the young lady mess up? Yes. Did she break the law? Yes. A grown arse man slamming her to the ground. frick him. My .02

BLM groups feel empowered because there are only a few cops out there with the grit to do their jobs. I'd say 70% of cops are just there for a check "only job they could get" and never cause any resistance to criminals. If 70% of cops were like this guy in the video and 30% were cucks then groups like BLM wouldn't exist. They only are able to flourish because SJW are not afraid of them..... thats the 70/30 relationship I'm talking about.

I would imagine their reaction should be based on how big a threat they're facing. In this case, I doubt this 110 lb girl was much of a threat to that cop. He's a piece of shite.
