Ogden police on Tuesday responded to video from the weekend showing officers punching a man. The chief says the man refused to show his hands and acted as if he had a gun.
OGDEN — A man seen being punched numerous times by Ogden police during a weekend arrest in a now-viral video was refusing to remove his hands from his waistband, and at one point put his hand under his shirt and pointed it like a gun, police said.
Young says what the cellphone video doesn't show is that when the first officer approached Sims, he "immediately reached into his waistband," leading the first officer to believe Sims was "accessing a gun." In body camera video, an officer is heard yelling at Sims, "Get on the ground!" Once Sims is tackled to the pavement, officers can be heard yelling, "Keep your hands out of there," "Give me your hands" and "Stop reaching in your waistband." Sims cries out in pain as he is punched and the Taser is deployed.
Once Sims is in handcuffs, a fair amount of blood can be seen on the road and the right side of his face is covered in blood. Police move him out of the road and have him sit on the curb of the sidewalk."My problems aren't your problems," he replied.
