    Video shows alleged abuse by Mexican police

    MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico City's police chief says he has launched an investigation into a journalist's video that allegedly captures a police officer abusing a suspect.

    Milenio Television reported Friday that one of its reporters had taken the video recording an officer repeatedly pushing the man's head into a bucket of water while his T-shirt was pulled up over his head and face.

    The alleged abuse took place following a gunfight between police and gunmen in the working-class neighborhood of Tepito. The video's authenticity could not be independently confirmed, and neither Milenio nor police released the suspect's identity.

    Mexico City Public Safety Director Manuel Mondragon said Friday that he was outraged by the video and that both the police and local prosecutor will look into it.

        Americans seem to have more of a problem with this than Mexicans do.

      Once you consider that being a good cop in Mexico means you are a target for the drug cartels it isn't hard to understand some cops get out of hand. It's no excuse for their behavior but emotions have got to be high for Mexican lawmen.

    • Sporky McCrackin  •  Anchorage, United States  •  6 mths ago
      It's because of things like this that I can't get too upset when I hear about Mexican cops getting killed in the line of duty. Sometimes I think it is probably a revenge killing for police abuse. Over all they are a very bad lot.
