Tampa cops responded to a call about a woman in distress who was walking in the street with her kids ... and it turned into a gutwrenching scene of the children being ripped away from their mom.
Police got the call of a woman "under severe mental distress." When they arrived in the downtown area, they saw her walking in the road with her 5 barefoot kids.
The way police handled the situation is raising lots of questions ... in particular, whether this was the way to handle and de-escalate the situation.
You see one cop holding the woman against a fence, while one of her daughters stands by her side. Then, another cop held the girl with one hand as he restrains 3 of her brothers who are trying to free their sister from the officer.
Police eventually took the woman to a hospital for a psychological evaluation. They also took the kids to the hospital so they could be near their mom.
This is yet another example of how important it is for police to assess non-violent situations and figure out ways of de-escalating without causing needless trauma, force or worse.

Well, Donald Trump loves his white supremacists, because he just gave his stamp of approval on a protest where one of his loudest supporters is screaming "white power."
It's a bizarre demonstration/counter-demonstration ... a line of golf carts traversed streets around Sumter County, Florida with Trump supporters, as Trump protesters lined the streets.
You hear demonstrators, mostly seniors, boil over in anger ... there's no physical contact, but it's intense.
True-to-form Trump retweeted the video, saying, "Thank you to the great people of The Villages. The Radical Left Do Nothing Democrats will Fall in the Fall. Corrupt Joe is shot. See you soon!!"
Again ... one of his most vocal supporters is the guy who screams "white power" ... one of Trump's "great people." So, he's not even masking it anymore.

Nipsey Hussle's family's stuck in an odd limbo with a Crips company -- over a trademark -- and it's got them worried something shady's going on.
Sources close to the late rapper tell TMZ ... his family's legal conflict with the Crips LLC -- yes, the gang's gone corporate -- over the rights to Hussle's "The Marathon Continues" slogan has carried on, leaving family members frustrated.
Here's the deal ... the Crips organization filed a couple trademarks for the phrase in 2019 -- one for clothing and one for various services. Shortly afterward, however, it apologized and vowed to back off, saying it would not get into a legal battle with the family ... which has several 'Marathon' trademarks of its own related to Nip's clothing store.
So, it seemed like all would be well, but according to our sources ... the Crips didn't take any action to withdraw its filings, which forced Nip's family to lawyer up and file oppositions to the trademark applications.
The good news for the family ... the Crips didn't fight the opposition to the clothing trademark application by the deadline, so the application was deemed abandoned earlier this month.
There's a good chance the same thing will happen with the other application too, but we're told Crips LLC has gone silent about the issue ... which hasn't been helpful for the family.

MIAMI GARDENS, FLA. (WSVN) - A former Miami Gardens police officer accused of using excessive for in the arrest of a pregnant woman is off the force after bonding out of jail.
Jody Martel was captured on camera using a Taser on a pregnant woman and putting his knee on her neck outside of Tootsie’s Cabaret in January.
Martel was arrested Thursday and charged with battery and official misconduct.
Thirty-two-year-old Safiya Satchell was arrested after a confrontation with Tootsie’s staff.
Martel, who worked the security detail that night, went too far according to Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez-Rundle.
Fernandez-Rundle said, “Martel allegedly used excessive force by putting his knee on Ms. Satchell’s neck. He went into Sacthell’s car without any evidence that she had committed a crime.”
Martel was caught on video reaching into Satchell’s car as she said back to him, “Don’t reach into my car.”
He then appeared to pull her out and use a Taser on her.
Satchell’s attorney released a statement saying in part, “The days of shuffling aside these videos of police misconduct are soon behind us as a community and a nation. We are pleased to see swift action taken by the authorities against this former officer.”
Martel has been in trouble before, appearing in a cell phone video struggling with a man in March at a Miami Gardens RaceTrac gas station.
The Miami Gardens Chief of Police called the rough arrest egregious behavior and wouldn’t be tolerated.
The video outside of Tootsie’s Cabaret included a staff member asking the person recording the incident, “Can you please delete that, sir? Can you please delete it?”
All charges against Satchell have been dropped.

Gap shares soared Friday after Kanye West shared a photo that touted his collaboration with the retailer.
Shares closed up 18.8% Friday at $12.07, but had been up as much as 40% earlier in the day. The move added more than $700 million to Gap’s market cap, pushing it to about $4.5 billion.
Gap and West are developing a clothing line for men, women and kids that will be sold in its stores and online. The retailer said in a news release that the items from his fashion brand, Yeezy, will be made up of “modern, elevated basics” sold at “accessible price points.” The new line will debut in 2021.
West is the sole owner of the Yeezy brand, Gap said in its press release.
The partnership is a ten-year agreement, a person familiar with the deal’s terms said. Gap did not disclose terms of the deal, but said Yeezy will receive royalties and may get equity based on how much it sells. Gap has issued Yeezy Supply warrants for up to 8.5 million shares depending on whether the brand meets certain sales targets, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Yeezy Supply is guaranteed the first third of those shares if annual net sales of the Gap-Yeezy line hit $250 million and the pursuant thirds if sales reach $450 million and $700 million annually. Those warrants expire 20 days after the company confirms its sales for fiscal 2025.
Following Friday’s rally, the total stake is worth more than $100 million at the current share price. In all, Yeezy Supply could have up to a 2% ownership in Gap, based off the company’s current share count.
Yeezy already has a shoe partnership with sports brand Adidas. A spokesperson for the German company declined to comment on the Gap collaboration when asked about it on Friday.
In its announcement of the deal, Gap said West’s experience working in one of its stores has come full circle.
“We are excited to welcome Kanye back to the Gap family as a creative visionary, building on the aesthetic and success of his YEEZY brand and together defining a next-level retail partnership,” Mark Breitbard, the company’s global head of brand, said in a news release.

Colorado authorities are taking a second crack at investigating the death of Elijah McClain, who died last year after being stopped by police, and put into a chokehold.
Governor Jared Polis appointed a special prosecutor Thursday to reopen the inquiry into Elijah's death and potentially prosecute the cops who were involved.
As you've probably read ... Elijah died back in August 2019 after police stopped him on a street in suburban Denver. His story has gone viral this week, and become a rallying cry for protests against police brutality and systemic racism.
Mari Newman -- the attorney for Elijah's family -- tells TMZ ... "It shouldn't take a petition signed by millions to hold police accountable when they kill an innocent black man."
The Governor is putting state Attorney General Phil Weiser on the case and Polis says, "Elijah McClain should be alive today, and we owe it to his family to take this step and elevate the pursuit of justice in his name to a statewide concern."
Polis says he was moved to act in part because of Elijah's mother, who described her son as a "responsible and curious child ... who could inspire the darkest soul."
Aurora PD officers stopped Elijah on August 24, 2019, while responding to a call about a suspicious person walking the streets wearing a ski mask and waving his arms. His family says he commonly wore the mask to keep warm ... due to his anemia.
Cops say Elijah refused to stop walking down the street and resisted when police confronted him and attempted to place him in custody. One of the cops placed Elijah in a chokehold.
Body-camera footage of the incident shows Elijah telling the cops, "Let go of me. I am an introvert. Please respect the boundaries that I am speaking." His words are now popping up on social media posts demanding justice.
Cops reportedly kept Elijah on the ground for 15 minutes, and then paramedics gave him a sedative. Elijah suffered cardiac arrest on the way to a hospital and was declared brain dead on Aug. 27 -- and he was taken off life support a few days later.

International artist Joe Young aka Mansa's hot new single "Keep Me Alive" ft Ceelo Green produced by Grammy-nominated producers Cool & Dre is out now on all platforms!
"What's going on currently is that we need to find our way back to God. We need to find our way back to our driving energy. We need to stop letting the media-controlling us and making us believe what they want us to believe. The truth is out there. This song is a reflection of isolation. We need to practice spiritual distancing. We are making the wrong people famous - trolls, snitches, and child molesters. We need to find our way back to humanity in a real way. Keep me alive!" says Joe Young.
Artist Joe Young, who was mentored by WuTang Clan legend - Ghostface Killa, was born and raised in Germany. In addition to being an artist, when he's not in the studio recording music, he enjoys designing clothes for Wu Wear and he runs a tech company called 3rdspacecommunications.
This single is a powerful piece of art. It was crafted with pure energy and a bit of good and bad karma. The balance is there. All live Instruments. "The hook is what everyone feels in their soul right now. It's a big song. Ceelo Green is one of the greatest voices of our generation and it was a pleasure being able to have him apart of this project. It has a crazy story to it which is told in bits and pieces leading to a grand finale full of emotions and mixed feelings. It will be the biggest song for us this year. Everything is alive on this track" quotes Joe Young.
