- One of two white police officers who rode through the streets of Galveston, Texas, on horseback escorting a black man walking tethered to a rope is heard saying: “This is going to look really bad” in newly released police video footage of the incident.
A still photo of the arrest captured by an onlooker and posted on social media went viral, prompting a public outcry. Her patrol partner, Patrick Brosch, at least twice voices discomfort at the appearance of what they are doing, saying at the outset: “This is going to look really bad.” Brosch and Smith have been placed on “modified duty” pending Galveston Police Chief Vernon Hale’s review of a report on the incident submitted by the county sheriff earlier this week, city spokeswoman Marissa Barnett told Reuters on Thursday.
