Norfolk, Virginia — Two Virginia police officers have been sued for allegedly drawing their guns on a uniformed Army officer during a traffic stop and spraying him with a substance. U.S. Army Lt. Caron Nazario was driving Dec. 5, 2020, in his newly purchased Chevrolet Tahoe when two Windsor police officers, Joe Gutierrez and Daniel Crocker pulled over Nazario, while he was dressed in uniform, according to the lawsuit filed April 2. The officers’ body camera footage shows both exiting their patrol cars with guns drawn, while 2nd Lt. Caron Nazario had his hands held in the air outside the driver’s side window as he told the armed officers, “I’m honestly afraid to get out.†One of the officers told Nazario, “Yeah, you should be!â€.
The officer then pepper-sprayed Nazario, exercised knee-strikes to his legs and placed him handcuffs. The stop happened on a night in December after one of the two officers said Nazario’s SUV had tinted windows and didn’t have a rear license plate. Officer Joe Gutierrez has been “terminated from his employment” following an internal probe into the arrest of Caron Nazario. The dismissal of Gutierrez was first revealed in a press release from the Town of Windsor. In the statement, officials said Gutierrez was fired after it was deemed he’d failed to follow department policy. The other officer, Daniel Crocker, is still employed by the police department. Now, Nazario is asking for at least $1 million in damages and for the court to rule that the two officers violated his rights, including rights under the Fourth Amendment.

About 17:40… low and behold, he has a gun… so he led the officers on a 1.5 mile chase (understand, well lit area, all he had to do is get out of the vehicle, no pepper spray, no nothing. He continuously refused orders, was more focused on his dash cam than working with the police. This guy wanted a payday! He had a gun, the officers had no idea what was in that car nor what the person in the car was going to do.
poor man worked soo hard and is going to war poor dog was just there man this hit hard sucks :'[
You can tell the rookie was SUPER uncomfortable with the action of the older dude. He was shaking at one point.
I hope those pigs get killed next time they draw their weapons on an innocent person
cops like that give good cops a bad nameï¼ï¼
that cop has a small man complex what a jerkoffï¼ï¼
$ 1 millón thx! 😉
Reminds me John Rambo in the first blood
I agree with what he did but bro don't take a chance. imagine he "mistook" his pepper spray for a shot gun. just cooperate even if he's wrong and fight it later
What kind of polish officer is this? 😆😄😆😄😆
What a asshole. The guy is serving his country and he gets treated like a felon. Then the mans poor dog is suffering too.. at least here in Australia our vets and military are treated well by police and others.
why don't you just comply
My mans said "you made this harder than it had to be" MY GUY, ITS A TRAFFIC STOP, WHILE DRIVING TO A WELL LIT AREA, HE WAS FOLLOWING TRAFFIC LAWS, IF YOUR FLEEING FROM OFFICERS YOU SPEED UP LIKE YOU STOLE THE DAMN THING, NOT ONLY THAT BUT HE WENT WITH THE IM A VET TOO AND I FOLLOW ORDERS APPROACH, MY GUY HE PROBABLY OUT RANKED YOU WHEN YOU WERE IN THE MILITARY AND ITS A TRAFFIC STOP, NOT A FELONY STOP HAHAHAH
They are so lucky that service dog didn't attack them
All this dude had to do was COMPLY. He wanted a confrontation to happen. It happens everyday with Leo's now that everyone records everything. He was hoping to get shot so he could be a martyr. I'm not saying the Leo's were doing their job correctly, I'm just saying all he had to do was COMPLY.
They must be junior recruits because of the way they arrest the "suspect" that is clearly NOT a threat.
Please tell me this two cops are fired
I just wanna said: Why all fat and bold cops have to be so aggressive & screaming everywhere, like CHILL! 🤫
He was treated unfairly
The police are the biggest threat to freedom, not even the ppl who protect our country can live the freedom they supposedly fight and died for… this is what you fought for!? You are destroying our kid's futures… The police have bastardized the American Flag with their blue line bullshit…
These are the officers that need to be weeded out. Cop on a power trip. So glad he's been fired. Now that he's a civilian, maybe he'll be pulled over by a power hungry officer and see how he reacts to guns and mace in his face for not breaking any laws.
Well it only takes a trained soldier to stay calm enough to not get shot. How can you expect normal citizen to stay that calm… No wonder so many people get shot.
S.O.S COLOMBIA EMERGENCY
Can someone explain to me why tf these basic cops are thinking that they can act like that in front of a fuck ing Veteran like tf
I hate this situation but i wish the Lieutenant just complied and did what they said and then took it to court later
this is fucked up. whats also fucked up is that the officers only put their mask on when the paramedics arrived
Listen to the officers trying to convince the victim that he was somehow at fault for this.
I’m no cop hater but if our own military personnel are treated like this something is wrong
american police is a joke
As awful as this was, he made it worse by not complying.
To be a police officer in this country looks easy, even jerk or un-eductated people could be a police officer.
26:23 why did he say that in this situation its completly out of context. im happy that he got fired. God bless all our Soldiers
