A controversial stop and arrest by Louisville Metro Police was caught on video, and it has some in the community concerned about an officer’s use-of-force protocol. Two LMPD Officers can be heard giving at least 20 commands to suspect Montez Williams. “Get out of the vehicle. Step out of the vehicle. Step out of the vehicle. Put your hands on there. You step out of the vehicle and you do it now. Step out of the vehicle. I am giving you a lawful order. You’re going to do it. 413 David, start some cars this way. (radio chatter) Get out of the vehicle. Get out of the vehicle.”
The original YouTube video showed the force that was used. In that video, a man records the arrest as his friend claims the officers went over the line while trying to put handcuffs on him. But, opinions are split over that. Late Wednesday afternoon, police also released a statement, which reads in part, “The public should look at LMPD’s Use of Force Policy, which states when officers are confronted with situations where control must be exercised, “it continues,” there are times when they may use reasonable physical force.”
The video was posted by Antwoin Jackson. We haven’t been able to reach him for comment. According to police, two men were pulled over by LMPD officers at 1317 Berry Boulevard at about 3 p.m. in the afternoon for a traffic violation. Police said the driver, Montez Williams, switched seats with the passenger. Officers said they smelled a strong odor of marijuana in the car. They said Williams refused to exit the car. LMPD said they were within the rules and regulations to use reasonable force in this case. They promise a full review. Montez Williams is charged with possession of marijuana, resisting arrest and several traffic violations.

Cops didnt do anything wrong. Both suspects were uncooperative from the start. Had to tell the driver 5 times to put his hands on the wheel, and the passenger was ignoring orders and then got combative.
This kind of shit makes me furious. F'n cooperate and comply with the officers and things will go the best as possible for you.
When people act like this, they’re clearly up to no good.
“Call 911!†They are 911 dumb bitch.
"Somebody please call 911"………HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
I think the police department should PUBLICLY thank the other for complying. The praise will boost his morale and prove, that complying saves lives. Maybe reward him with a certificate for citizen of the month. This not only benefits him, it polishes up the police image, as well as bridging the massive gap between the force and the black community.
Just a few ideas
It’s like yelling at a dog. They just stare at you with that blank, brainless look 😂😂
why are all of these idiots the same? they have to yell what theyre not doing while theyre doing it like thats going to help them…. its almost like they are a different breed
These body camera's are presenting a problem for the knuckleheads who would bring false allegations against our Officers.
“Somebody call 911! They beating on me!†What an idiot. Typical.
I hate white cops
Same type of people always getting into trouble.
He said he 'didn't do anything!' Thats 100% true. He was askd to get out of the car- he didnt do anything about that,he was his details- he didnt give them. HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!!!!!
What the f***?
Dey iz beatin on meee hayelllllppppp
CNN: "Racist White Driver dressed up as a Black Guy and his Racist Cop Friends conspired to ambush Black Passenger." HAHAHAHAA–I cannot type this with a straight face!
3:53 "SUMBODY CAWL 911!!!!!!!!!!!"
6:00 911 sends more officers to take the idiot to Jail.
These people think they are clever
Are these people existing in an alternate universe where they actually were complying?
Obama really screwed w blacks for a decade!!!!!….and it still continues!!!!
Suspect or not, he’s still human.
Just follow freakin instructions you idiots!
it's against the law to switch seats in your own car I don't get it ..so if the officer see them switching seats why they didn't tell him to stay out the car there another crooked crooked system
Lol I haven't done any thing; Yes that's the problem they ask you to step out of the car. But you didn't so they helped you out of the car, listen to them and obey the orders and nothing wrong SHOULD happen to you. I don't condone police violence in any way what so ever, but please listen to police.
It really Sucks When you have 2 perps and because you have a Female Partner you have to Stay with her and Her Perp, Leaving the Other Unattended . Female So-called Police Officers are a Joke, Completely Useless !!
Ahhhhh Haaaaa BIG DUMMIES. GOOD CATCH P.O.
All these protesters nad at police but if something happens to them then they want the police to help
I didn’t do anything lol the classic statement of man hiding his identity jumping in the passenger seat pretended he wasn’t driving while smoking pot and resisted arrest while falsely accusing police officers of abuse.
"Someone call 9-1-1!!!" ROFLMAO!! You want to tell him or should I?
This is an important time to review use of force. And why they needed to use that much force, like, they could have complied from the beginning
I love the suspect's fantasy commentary. He must have read wish it, want it, be it. If I believe what I say enough it'll be real. SMH
"CALL 911!" shit they're already here… "CALL 411, CALL anybody!"
I'm not trying to be racist but it's always the black people and Latinos who don't think that the law applies to them
I don't see no use of force but what I do see is no compliance with lawful orders
Hahahaha…dumb criminal fucks.
When you act like a douche…you get everything that comes to you after that.
10-8, no report
It's just too damn simple to get out on your own will.
When the police have to tell you over and over give me your hands, yet you continue not to. That is "NOT" being cooperative and it is "NOT" being respectful.
I guess maybe you shouldn't have dropped out til you learned how to use a dictionary and figured how to find out what words mean.
The cops are in the right
obamas legacy.
I'm trying to….ughh you're not trying to…. someone call 911….ughh 911 is here
Everyone's looking for a police assault payout these days it seems…
Pennsylvania vs Mimms
We need to start marching/protesting FOR the police. It's absolutely ridiculous that all the idiots in support of perpetrators are granted public attention & a platform. Those of us who are PRO law & order need to "rally"
Why did the passenger have to show ID to the Dirty Hog?
