The highly publicized arrest of a hot dog vendor at the Embarcadero has stirred controversy due to the apparently excessive use of force by police officers.
The SFPD claims that bodycam footage of the arrest will reveal that the vendor assaulted a city employee and manipulated a child to cry during the incident.
Witnesses described the chaotic scene as officers threw the hot dog cart vendor to the ground, despite her being pregnant, while her daughter screamed in panic.
In response to the backlash, the SFPD is aiming to maintain transparency by releasing bodycam footage, asserting that the incident involved necessary policing actions.
