Two New York City police officers were scene punching and kicking a man in a Brooklyn liquor store after wrongly identifying him as a suspect on April 14th. The officers were undercover detectives who wrongly IDed Timothy L Brown as a suspect in a narcotics purchase. Brown was charged with resisting arrest and was released, the charges were later dropped. NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said on X “The officers in question are modified,” “Their guns and shields have been removed.”
