14-YEAR-OLD HOLDING A PUPPY SLAMMED TO THE GROUND AND PUT IN CHOKEHOLD FOR GIVING POLICE ‘DEHUMANIZING STARES’

Police in Miami say they felt so threatened by a 14-year-old boy’s “body language” and “dehumanizing stares” that they had no choice but to put him in a choke hold and arrest him.

According to reports, Tremaine McMillian was “roughhousing” with a friend when Miami-Dade Police officers approached them and ordered them to stop fighting.

Here’s where things get sketchy.

The officers reportedly realized that there was no actual fighting going on, however, they still asked McMillian to identify where his mother was.

The teen says he did as he was told, but Miami-Dade Police Detective Alvaro Zabaleta argues he refused to cooperate and started walking away.
