In this image made from video provided by Delane Gordon, a police officer in Collegedale, Tenn., is seen before he fires a stun gun at Gordon on Thursday, March 10, 2022. Gordon, a food delivery driver, began recording his traffic stop for speeding and asked to see the officer's supervisor. Gordon's attorney, Ryan Wheeler, says Gordon is facing additional charges of resisting arrest and obstruction of justice. Police have so far not identified the officer.
Attorney Ryan Wheeler released the video at a news conference Friday, saying Delane Gordon began recording when the March 10 stop started to make him feel unsafe. Police in Collegedale, a city of some 11,000 people about 20 miles east of Chattanooga, have thus far declined to identify the officer.Earlier in the week, authorities said they were investigating a March 10 traffic stop by Collegedale Police that resulted in those three charges.
“Oh my God, that’s not lawful sir. That’s not lawful,” Gordon said after he was hit. The video then ends.The Collegedale Police Department has not put the officer on leave, said Lt. Jamie Heath. The Hamilton County district attorney's office announced Tuesday that it asked the county sheriff's office to investigate a traffic stop on March 10 by the Collegedale Police Department in which the driver was charged with speeding, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.
