Further details on conclusions.
On April 13, 2015, at approximately 9:00 p.m., [redacted] was attempting to get into his mother in law, [redacted]s car in the parking lot of [redacted] in Brooklyn. [redacted] had locked her keys in the car and [redacted] was pulling on all four door handles to check if any were unlocked or if there was a keypad to enter a numeric code and unlock the doors. PO Jean Prinston and PO Yahaira Llano, who were assigned to Patrol Boro Brooklyn North and conducting a patrol of the parking lot, walked towards [redacted] who approached them and asked if they could help him get into the car. The officers told [redacted] that they could not help him and began to walk away. [redacted] also began to walk in the opposite direction. The officers returned to [redacted]s car, looked inside through the windows and then called [redacted] to come back so that they could ask him some additional questions (Allegations A and B). [redacted] initially complied, but then attempted to walk away. PO Prinston blocked [redacted]s path, preventing him from leaving (Allegation C). The officers continued to question [redacted] for a couple minutes and then he attempted to walk away again. PO Llano grabbed [redacted] who responded by turning around quickly and asking her, "What you grabbing me for?" PO Llano responded by punching [redacted] once in the face with a closed fist (Allegation D). [redacted] was subsequently arrested for resisting arrest, obstruction of governmental administration, and returned on two open warrants. [redacted] was not charged with attempting to break into [redacted]s car, because she came to the scene after the allegation took place and confirmed that [redacted] was allowed to use her car.
The incident was captured on two building security cameras (Snagit Videos #1 and #2).
