An officer has been put on paid leave after video of him slamming a 12-year-old on concrete has spread on the Internet.
In the video, officer Joshua Kehm can be see approaching sixth-grader Janissa Valdez. She struggles to get away from him, eventually ending up on the ground as Kehm slams her on the ground, so hard you can hear her head hit the concrete.
Take a look at the video of the incident that was shot at Rhodes Middles School in San Antonio:
The 12-year-old tells Fox San Antonio that she was arguing with another girl and planned to “tell her let’s go somewhere else so we could talk.” That never occurred, obviously, because she ended up on the ground.
Two investigations have begun: one within the school district and the other within the police department.
A third investigation has also begun to learn why this video looks like it was filmed 10 years ago.
