I'm absolutely bloody disgusted by that.
Yes...the police often times need to get physical with a suspect to protect themselves and any innocent bystanders.
But a police officer should not get away with actions like that. Hell, in my opinion, an officer should be held to a higher standard of conduct that the "average person".
This person is in a position of trust, and he completely violated that trust by kicking a defenseless person in the head. I mean, I won't even argue that some gangbanger asshat probably deserved a good swift kick to the head for endangering the lives of so many people during the chase. But just because he might deserve it, doesn't mean the officer has any right to deliver it.
This was wrong, plain and simple, and the cop involved should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
