The FBI arrested three police officers and one sergeant in Connecticut for allegedly mistreating Hispanic suspects and residents while on patrol, law enforcement officials said.
Three East Haven police officers and the sergeant were taken into custody early Tuesday and are expected to be arraigned in federal court in Bridgeport later on the civil rights-related charges, the officials said.
The officers were identified as Dennis Spaulding, David Cari, Jason Zullo and Sgt. John Miller.
Connecticut U.S. Attorney spokesman Tom Carson confirmed the arrests and said the charges would be outlined at a news conference in Bridgeport later Tuesday morning.

Racial profiling is one of the most accurate tools and has been taken from police.
Taken from police> Are you kidding?
They all profile every minute they are on the job. They call it observation. Problem being most are not of adequate intelligence to discern ordinary from suspicious.
Listen everyone , hispanics are much shorter people , it's culture.
When we stop a vehicle and the person can bearly see over the steering wheel , we have the right.
The driver could be 10 years old or a 100 years old.
