An NYPD cop making an arrest in the East Village for a social distancing violation threatened a bystander with a Taser and then punched him to the ground, startling video shows.

The video, which has spread quickly on social media, shows officers making an arrest on 9th St. and Avenue D just after 5:30 p.m. Saturday when one cop gets up, draws his Taser and approaches a bystander while yelling, “Move the fuck back right now... Don’t flex.”

Police said the bystander, 33-year-old Donni Wright, had been ordered to disperse but he instead “took a fighting stance.”

The plainclothes cop, identified by sources as Officer Francisco Garcia, holstered his Taser and grabbed Wright, punching him multiple times in the face and body and then using his leg to pin him to the ground by the neck.

Mayor de Blasio blasted Garcia in a tweet Sunday evening.

“Saw the video from the Lower East Side and was really disturbed by it,” he wrote. “The behavior I saw in that video is simply not acceptable.”

Garcia has since been placed on modified desk duty and stripped of his gun and badge, according to police sources.

The mayhem began when cops approached a group not following social distancing mandates aimed at curbing the spread of coronavirus. Some of the group dispersed but others refused to, cops said, and responding officers found a large amount of marijuana in open view, according to police.

The owner of the marijuana immediately became aggressive, according to cops and a woman with him tried to intervene in the arrest.

That’s when Wright, watching the chaotic arrests unfold, was told to scram but refused to, according to cops.

But Daquan Owens, who filmed the video with his cellphone, told the Daily News the attack on Wright was totally uncalled for.

“The guy that just got slammed to the floor and punched, he was just standing there saying, ‘They didn’t do nothing,’ and actually they didn’t do nothing," Owens said.

“Nothing was going on, nothing provoked the cop. He just got up, pulled his Taser out,'” Owens added. “The cop, I guess he was frustrated and took his frustration out on the guy.”

Wright was arrested and charged with assault on a police officer, menacing, resisting arrest, obstructing governmental administration, and two counts of disorderly conduct.

The man and woman initially being arrested, Shakiem Brunson, 31, and Ashley Serrano, 22, were both hit with a slew of charges including resisting arrest, weapon possession and disorderly conduct. Brunson was also charged with marijuana possession.

All three were awaiting arraignment in Manhattan Criminal Court Sunday evening.

During a coronavirus press conference on Sunday, NYPD Commissioner Dermot Shea said the NYPD Internal Affairs Bureau was investigating.

Two cops smashed Darren McFadden's car windows and later pointed both a gun AND taser at the ex-NFL RB during his 2019 arrest ... and the intense standoff was all captured on new police video obtained by TMZ Sports.

The former Dallas Cowboys star was found asleep at the wheel of a Whataburger drive-thru in McKinney, Texas on January 21, 2019 ... and you can see in the video, cops did everything they could to wake him up.

One of the officers beats on the windows of McFadden's 2019 GMC Yukon repeatedly with his fist and flashlight ... before he eventually decided to rock the car back and forth.

But, the motion caused McFadden's foot to slip off the brake and onto the gas pedal ... and that's when things took a scary turn.

McFadden's ride nosedived into the side of the fast-food restaurant ... and in an effort to get Darren to wake up and stop the car, officers smashed the hell out of his windows.

Eventually, the officers were able to bust through and get the car to stop ... but that's when 32-year-old McFadden became combative -- and fought the cops.

In the video, you can see Darren got in a big-time struggle with THREE different officers ... before they eventually pointed both a gun and a taser at him to stop him from advancing.

Thankfully, before the taser or gun was fired ... McFadden gave up and was taken to the ground and handcuffed.

The former NFL player eventually got jail time over the incident after prosecutors hit him with charges of resisting arrest and DWI with a BAC of greater than or equal to .15.

As we previously reported, McFadden agreed to a deal in February 2020 in which he pleaded guilty to drunk driving in exchange for having the resisting arrest charge dismissed.

McFadden was ordered to spend 4 days in jail, although he did receive credit for 1 day of time served. He was also forced to pay fines and fees ... and his driver's license was suspended for 90 days.

Darren -- the former No. 4 overall pick in the 2008 NFL Draft -- rushed for 5,421 yards in his 10-year NFL career, scoring 28 total rushing touchdowns.

CNN host Don Lemon made a powerful soliloquy to the TV camera on Sunday night, accusing Donald Trump of being obsessed with Barack Obama after Trump again retweeted a conspiracy theory about his Oval Office predecessor. Lemon called it “a new low from a president who goes low all the time,” and praised former President George W. Bush, who sent a message urging unity among Americans. Trump responded by attacking Bush on Twitter. Lemon, in a clip now going viral on Twitter, faced the camera and, addressing Trump directly, said: “What is it about President Obama that really gets under your skin? Is it because he’s smarter than you? Better educated? Made it on his own—didn’t need Daddy’s help? Wife is more accomplished? Better looking? I don’t know, what is it, what is it about him? That he’s a black man that’s accomplished being president? That he punked you on the whole birth certificate thing? What is it about him? Just wondering.”

Kodak Black says he was viciously attacked by seven prison guards on Friday, May 1, at the United States Penitentiary, Big Sandy in Kentucky.

A post on the 22-year old rapper's Instagram page today detailed this weekend's alleged incident.

"Friday night he was badly beaten while in cuffs, by 7 guards at Big Sandy KY.," the post reads. "They struck him in the head repeatedly with a metal object, Then after one of the guards flicked his genitals and said "you're not so gangster now, you're gonna need bigger balls to survive". We have notified his counsel @lawronin and he advised he will be asking for a full investigation by @thejusticedept and the FBI."

Black's lawyer, Bradford Cohen, says he has requested an investigation by the Department of Justice.

"I have requested that Big Sandy preserve all video and conduct a full investigation. I have also reached out to DOJ, as I feel that a 3rd party investigation needs to take place immediately," Cohen wrote on an Instagram post. "There are recordings of the witnesses that called and stated what happened to Bill. A 22 year old man serving approx 2 years more for a non violent crim is in a max pen. 1100 miles from his family and lawyers. This is true injustice. Not to mention when he was under the influence of an unknown substance during the incident in Miami 2 weeks before his sentencing on the paperwork case."

Black, real name Bill Kapri, has been held at Big Sandy since January, 23, when he was moved from the Federal Detention Center in Miami.

He is serving 46 months on weapons charges and is scheduled to be released on Aug. 14, 2022.

UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya recently chopped it up with The Score about his favorite porn stars.

“Mia Malkova is still at the top. Shoutout to Mia," he said. "Miss Danger [Abella Danger] is still on the top. Holly Michaels. There’s a lot. The list goes on.”

Adesanya went on to criticize the taboo surrounding such conversations. He said, “We all watch porn, we all masturbate, we all have sex. So why [do we have to] pretend this doesn’t happen. It’s like shaming our sexuality.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — Tara Reade, the former Senate staffer who alleges Joe Biden sexually assaulted her 27 years ago, says she filed a limited report with a congressional personnel office that did not explicitly accuse him of sexual assault or harassment.

“I remember talking about him wanting me to serve drinks because he liked my legs and thought I was pretty and it made me uncomfortable,” Reade said in an interview Friday with The Associated Press. “I know that I was too scared to write about the sexual assault.”

Reade told the AP twice that she did not use the phrase “sexual harassment” in filing the complaint, but at other points in the interview said that was the behavior she believed she was describing. She said: “I talked about sexual harassment, retaliation. The main word I used – and I know I didn’t use sexual harassment — I used ‘uncomfortable.’ And I remember ‘retaliation.’”

Reade described the report after the AP discovered additional transcripts and notes from its interviews with Reade last year in which she says she “chickened out” after going to the Senate personnel office. The AP interviewed Reade in 2019 after she accused Biden of uncomfortable and inappropriate touching. She did not raise allegations of sexual assault against Biden until this year, around the time he became the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.

The existence of the Senate report has become a key element of the accusations against Biden, which he has flatly denied. Reade says she doesn’t have a copy of the report, and Biden said Friday that he is not aware that any complaint against him exists. He asked the Senate and the National Archives to search their records to try to locate a complaint from Reade.

But Reade is suggesting that even if the report surfaces, it would not corroborate her assault allegations because she chose not to detail them at the time.

According to a transcript of her 2019 interview with the AP, Reade said: “They have this counseling office or something, and I think I walked in there once, but then I chickened out.” She made a similar statement in a second interview with AP that same day, according to written notes from the interview.

On Friday, Reade said she was referring to having “chickened out” by not filing full harassment or assault allegations against Biden. In multiple interviews with the AP on Friday, Reade insisted she filed an “intake form” at the Senate personnel office, which included her contact information, the office she worked for and some broad details of her issues with Biden.

On Saturday, Reade told the AP there may have been a box to check on the form noting a sexual harassment complaint, but she couldn’t remember and wouldn’t know for sure until she saw the form. Reade also said she canceled a planned television interview with “Fox News Sunday” because of security concerns.

Reade was one of eight women who came forward last year with allegations that Biden made them feel uncomfortable with inappropriate displays of affection. Biden acknowledged the complaints and promised to be “more mindful about respecting personal space in the future.”

During one of the April 2019 interviews with the AP, she said Biden rubbed her shoulders and neck and played with her hair. She said she was asked by an aide in Biden’s Senate office to dress more conservatively and told “don’t be so sexy.”

She said of Biden: “I wasn’t scared of him, that he was going to take me in a room or anything. It wasn’t that kind of vibe.”

The AP reviewed notes of its 2019 interviews with Reade after she came forward in March with allegations of sexual assault against Biden. But reporters discovered an additional transcript and notes from those interviews on Friday.

A recording of one of the interviews was deleted before Reade emerged in 2020 with new allegations against Biden, in keeping with the reporter’s standard practice for disposing of old interviews. A portion of that interview was also recorded on video, but not the part in which she spoke of having “chickened out.”

The AP declined to publish details of the 2019 interviews at the time because reporters were unable to corroborate her allegations, and aspects of her story contradicted other reporting.

Former Dallas Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant on Saturday ripped his old employer for its Andy Dalton acquisition while Dak Prescott remains unsigned. And while his passion is appreciated - as it almost always is in this space - it is also misplaced.

"Nothing against Andy Dalton because I think he’s a great player,'' Bryant tweeted, "but the Cowboys are extremely out of line. Pay Dak.''

Bryant insinuated something odd when he also wrote, "I watched the Cowboys pay Tony (Romo) twice once without (him having) a winning record.'' And Dez also insinuated - as many have in the wake of the signing of the street-free-agent Dalton - that it was both a "slap'' to Prescott and a "message'' to him.

When we countered to Bryant that Cowboys management had already explained to us that the signing is "not meant as a threat'' to Prescott, but rather as a way of strengthening the roster by providing Dak with an accomplished veteran as a backup, he wasn't buying it.

"I was told a lot of things before and things ended up false,'' Bryant responded to me.

Bryant's tweet created a firestorm of concern over the situation, with far too many commenters (media and fans) either demonstrating a penchant for pot-stirring or leaning toward ignorance. Romo did of course get a pair of big contracts from Dallas - just as Prescott has a big offer on the table now ... a pair of them, in fact, as he can either accept the existing $31.409 million franchise-tag offer, or continue to negotiate a long-term deal that we've reported presently would land him $35 million AP and more than $106 million guaranteed.

Yes, that's the offer presently on the table from the Cowboys to Dak. He's well within his rights to not accept it, just as Dez is well within his rights to express his opinion - or even what he believes to be "his truths.''

But the Cowboys' offer to Dak Prescott is not "out of line.'' Their continued attempts to build a quality roster by signing Andy Dalton (and paying him a base salary that's only $1 million more than incumbent backup Cooper Rush) is not "out of line.''

And really, my guy Dez Bryant is not "out of line,'' either. He's just wrong.

AZUSA, Calif. (KABC) -- The novel coronavirus has hit one household in Azusa especially hard, sickening several members and killing the family patriarch.

Emotions are still raw for Luciana Ramirez. She lost her husband Guillermo to COVID-19 earlier this week.

"I'm really sad," Ramirez said. "I've been with him 30 years every day since I was 16 years old, and now I don't have him."

"I didn't even get to say goodbye," she added.

Guillermo was the patriarch and provider for a large family. Twelve people spanning three generations under one roof, and all of them tested positive for the virus.

The family says they wore gloves and masks, and washed their hands and even groceries, but it wasn't enough.

Ramirez said she started feeling unwell April 10 and thought she had the stomach flu.

One by one, they would get sick. The younger children never showed symptoms, but the adults did. On consecutive days, Ramirez watched as her son, her husband and her mother were taken away by ambulance.

Early Tuesday morning, doctors called and told her to rush to the hospital.

Ramirez's daughter, who lives elsewhere so she hasn't gotten sick, drove her to the hospital to be with her dying husband. Ramirez was in the backseat to prevent spreading the virus.

They didn't get there in time.

"She sat down and was crying and said, that's it, your dad is gone," said Guillermo's daughter Alexia Ramirez. "Your dad is gone. And I couldn't even hug her. I had to just watch her cry."

They are now devastated. Guillermo worked as a truck driver as the family's sole provider.

"Nothing's going to be the same without him," Alexia said. "He was our backbone. He supported our whole family. He worked hard and he loved to work."

"He literally would give you the last dollar out of his pocket," Luciana said.

The virus has already taken so much from the family, and it won't allow them to properly mourn.

"We can't even bury him," Luciana said. "We can't be together, we can't hug each other. It's devastating."

"I can't stress it enough that people take it serious," Alexia said. "I'll never see my dad again."

Guillermo was 47.

A GoFundMe page has been established to help the family.

A new California policy allows the release of some criminals after arrests to limit the state's jail population amid the coronavirus.

Authorities arrested a man in California three times in 12 hours for stealing people's vehicles and other private property, but subsequently said they were forced to release him under the state's zero-bail policy enacted during the pandemic.

In April, the California Judicial Council created the new rule for misdemeanors and low-level felonies in an attempt to limit the jail population and the spread of COVID-19, according to local media.

This week, that rule prevented Glendora, California, police from detaining 24-year-old Dijon Landrum despite his multiple acts of theft.

On Wednesday morning, Landrum was first arrested and issued a citation for driving in a stolen vehicle while he was also in possession of other stolen property and illegal drugs. One hour after he was arrested, police arrested him again for walking around a neighborhood and stealing items from the front yards of peoples' homes.

Later that night, around 8:50 p.m., Landrum had stolen another vehicle, forcing police to chase him until his third eventual arrest. He was again given a citation and dismissed.

Local media have reported hundreds of confirmed coronavirus cases in California jails.

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- A sudden and unprovoked assault was caught on camera in downtown Los Angeles.

A security guard at a local apartment complex was ambushed and nearly knocked unconscious.

Weeks later, Giovanni is still recovering from the assault.

"I want him caught. I don't want him to do that to nobody else. If he did that to me for no reason, who knows what he is going to do to the next person," he said.

The attack took place at the Piero Apartments, a luxury complex in downtown LA.

Giovanni says the man was asking for assistance to find a resident of the complex, and that's when the sudden assault happened.

Giovanni's fiance, whose face ABC7 has blurred, couldn't believe the video when she saw it.

"As hard as it was for me, I counted the blows in that video, 17 blows to his head," she said.

"He suffered a concussion, he has multiple contusions on his head, contusions on his elbow, his shoulder, contusions on his knee, his back. As you saw in the video, he easily could have suffered a broken back."

"We just want this guy off of the street because if he could do something so cold blooded to him, what's to stop him from doing it to someone else," she said.

LAPD detectives are searching for the man. They say he will be facing very serious charges when he is eventually caught.

Washington Redskins quarterback Alex Smith nearly lost his leg because of a flesh-eating bacteria that developed after he had surgery to repair the compound fracture he suffered during a game against the Houston Texans in November 2018.

In a first-person story told to ESPN's Stefania Bell, Smith's wife, Elizabeth, recalled doctors discovering her husband was suffering from "necrotizing fasciitis" and had a rare bacteria called Aeromonas hydrophila in his bloodstream that is usually found in freshwater or brackish water.

“He became septic, he had bacteria in his blood,” says Dr. Robin West. “We were in surgery every day for five to six days straight. Within a couple of days we were talking about an amputation to save his life.”

The change in his leg was rapid, with Elizabeth noting one of the doctors unwrapped Alex's surgical bandages to discover his leg was black with "huge" blisters after saying it "looked normal" just a few hours earlier.

Smith was injured when he was sacked by Kareem Jackson and J.J. Watt in the third quarter of Washington's 23-21 loss on Nov. 18, 2018.

Per Thom Loverro of the Washington Times, in October 2019, Smith revealed at the Inova Sports Medicine event he needed 17 surgeries on his leg, with nearly half of them dedicated to removing tissue due to the infection he suffered.

At one point in the process, doctors said Alex's injury was "more comparable to a military blast injury."

Smith sat out the entire 2019 season to rehab, but he told Jeremy Schapp of Outside the Lines (h/t Bell) in February that he hopes to resume his football career.

"There's enough there that I can go out there and play. ... Knowing that, yeah, failure is a possibility. ... I need to prove that I can come back and play quarterback in the NFL, and if I can do that, that would be great and it'll get figured out," he said.

Smith is under contract with Washington through the 2022 season. He threw for 2,180 yards, 10 touchdowns and a 61.5 completion percentage in 10 games during the 2018 season.

PORT ST. LUCIE, Florida -- It’s definitely not a Common excuse.

A Florida man told police that guns in his car belonged to John Wick, according to a police report obtained by The Smoking Gun.

Getro Gelin, 27, was being investigated for domestic violence Sunday after a woman told police that Gelin had threatened her with a gun, The Smoking Gun reported.

Police later searched Gelin’s Porsche and found a handgun, a semi-automatic rifle and a bulletproof vest, the police report said. Such an arsenal would have fit right into one of the films starring Keanu Reeves.

Officers asked Gelin why the guns were in his car, but Gelin was light years ahead of them with his excuse: He told the cops that he’d recently sold the car to his cousin John Wick.

After officers called this obvious bluff, Gelin admitted to that he did not actually have a cousin named John Wick but refused to give an actual name.

Gelin was arrested and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and domestic battery.
