Springfield, Florida — A Springfield police officer was arrested and charged with a felony after he allegedly used excessive force on a resident, Springfield Police and Bay County Sheriff’s officials said during a joint news conference. Former officer Ronnie Nelson had been arrested on a felony official misconduct charge and a misdemeanor battery charge. Nelson has been placed on unpaid leave and is pending termination. The incident was recorded on body-cam footage showing Nelson pulling and deploying a taser on an unarmed man, Solomon Smith, who officers thought had given a fake name to the police.

The incident happened on Business Highway 98 in Springfield, after officers stopped Smith as he was walking alone around midnight on May 29. An investigation into the incident revealed that Smith was stopped without a warrant and had given his correct name. His mother also told police that he has had a developmental disorder since he was a child. It was also found that officer Nelson falsified the police report, saying Smith had tried to throw a punch at the rookie officer on scene. Two other officers that were on the scene told police Smith never tried to throw a punch.

  1. This is an OUTRAGE!!! Since when is a US citizen not allowed to walk down the street at ANY time. We are losing our freedom. Poor Solomon, this makes me sick.

  2. I hope at least one anti-masker who watches this video understands what a "violation of rights" actually is!! THIS is why Kapernick knelt!!

  3. The cop falsified the report tin justify an horrendous assault and kidnapping of a totally innocent man for absolutely no reason. Utterly abhorrent behaviour. Should be in prison.

  4. Area known for drug activity, as in every area of the western world? I've had dealings with scum like this, because I had refused an ambulance they dragged me to hospital, when I refused a blood test, 2 of them threw me against a wall in front of everyone, handcuffed me then threw me in a dark room smaller than my bathroom for 10 hours. Not all cops are bad, but enough to notice. Least in the US you can sue them, try that in the UK you get told to go away.

  5. And the police wonder why so many people hate them – the entire police force needs to be retrained and have the bad ones weeded out 😔

  6. That´s bad cop,deserve to be arrested,prosecuted and send to jail.I hope he will be molested in jail,make him regret those non-human acting.
