A Victoria Police officer has been filmed grabbing a young woman by the throat and forcing her to the ground she struggles and screams, “He’s choking me!”
The distressing footage of the woman being arrested – apparently for not wearing a face mask – was uploaded to Twitter on Tuesday.
It begins mid-confrontation, as the grey-haired male officer pulls the woman along the street with one hand around her neck.
“He’s choking me!” she yells. “He’s choking me! What the f**k! Get off of me! Get off!”
In a statement, Victoria Police confirmed the arrest had been referred for internal review.
