Police caught on video arresting a woman at the beach have been taken off the street pending an official probe into their actions. The Wildwood Police Department said 20-year-old Emily Weinman, who can be seen being arrested in the video, was charged with two counts of aggravated assault on an officer and being a minor in possession of alcohol.

The arrest was shared on social media in a 54-second video clip posted online which shows one of the cops punching Weinman when she resists, a tactic known as "distracting blows" which is a legal use of force when a suspect is resisting. It took two officers to subdue the unruly woman as a third tried to keep bystanders from getting too close. The video has garnered over 2 million views and was posted by Twitter user @HewittLexy who said she recorded the video at 4:11 p.m. Saturday.
A Wildwood PD statement on Facebook said, "An Internal Affairs Investigation was immediately initiated into this matter and the involved officers have been reassigned to administrative duty pending the outcome of a full and thorough investigation."

women want to be "equal" in all respects
if you drunkenly fight cops, you get everything you deserve
The arrest was illegal therefore she was within her rights to resist. She cooperated with the breath test - which she was not legally required to submit to. She refused to provide her name, which she was not legally required to supply. Having passed the breath test, the Police had no probable cause of her having committed an offense so had no legal authorization to arrest her.
Punching someone in the head who you are illegally arresting is assault.
clearly the police should be better trained. they can't tell the difference between a young girl and a large, strong male resisting arrest.
