Teen girl chased by street gang calls 911. When the cops arrive they cuff her, throw her in the back of their car, and punch her repeatedly in the face

beatyourselfup:

Abbotsford Police have recommended an assault charge be laid against a Williams Lake RCMP officer who allegedly punched a handcuffed teenage girl repeatedly in the face while she was in the back of a police cruiser last year.

Jamie Haller, 17, was running in fear from a Williams Lake street gang on the night of Sept. 10 and asked a passerby to call 911.

Jamie managed to call her mother, Martina Jeff, who jumped into her car and went looking for Jamie - who had never been in trouble with the law before.

When Martina found her, Jamie was surrounded by police officers, on the ground in handcuffs, and in the midst of a panic attack.

Jeff said she saw the police handle Jamie roughly as they put her in the back of a cruiser, where she began kicking the window.

Jeff said she heard Const. Andy Yung threaten Jamie if she didn’t stop kicking the window.

He then joined Jamie in the back, where, Jeff said, she saw Yung repeatedly punch her daughter in the face.

This is not the first time Const. Yung has been accused of bad behaviour.

According to newspaper reports, Yung was assigned to security detail at a conference of defence ministers in Banff in Sept. 2008.

He was off-duty on the night of Sept 5, when he got drunk and called his ex-girlfriend from his hotel room. The call left him in tears.

Yung then fired a shot from his service pistol into the ceiling of his room at the Banff Springs Hotel. He called 911 and said he had accidentally fired his handgun.

The Ottawa Citizen reports that Yung had been illegally using the national police database to keep tabs on his ex-girlfriend.
