Videos of Apopka police officers pulling a Black man from his car before hitting and stunning him in his driveway in November 2019 resurfaced on social media this week, soon after the man filed a lawsuit against the city.
The officer who used a Taser on the man and wrote his arrest report, Nathaniel Tuck, resigned from the agency last year after he was arrested on charges that he participated in the U.S. Capitol riot.
Several cellphone videos showing the Nov. 28, 2019, arrest of Jason Friend were posted to TikTok in the last week, showing several officers surrounding Friend’s vehicle before dragging him out and punching him repeatedly in the head before using a Taser on him.
