NEW JERSEY: Cops Caught On Tape Beating And Kicking Innocent Bystander On Fire After Car Crash [VIDEO]

The New York Daily News reports:

A group of New Jersey cops was caught on cell phone video kicking and beating an innocent bystander who had been burnt by a car that crashed while trying to flee police.

The video shows the 28-year-old man rolling out of a car engulfed in flames. Several officers, some drawing their weapons, surround the man and one of them begins kicking him. The rest join in, and can be seen dragging him away from the fire and onto the street. The incident occurred at 11 p.m. Sunday in Jersey City.

The victim, who has not been identified, suffered severe burns and is fighting for his life at the hospital, a friend of the victim told NJ.com. The officers in the video haven’t been named, but Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop said they will be fired and potentially prosecuted for their actions.
