When the officers arrived at the store to investigate, a clerk told them about an unrelated shoplifting incident that had just occurred and were directed to three adults and two young children getting into a car in the parking lot, Williams said.
An officer ran out and tried to speak to the occupants of the car, yelling orders for the driver to stop, but the car kept going, Williams said.
The driver stopped and let out a passenger, a woman who had warrants out for her arrest, the chief said. She was taken into custody.
Cell phone video shows officers from the Phoenix Police Department sweep-kicking handcuffed Dravon Ames, May 27, 2019.
Officers then caught up to the vehicle suspected in the shoplifting at a nearby apartment complex. That's when the incident quickly escalated and witnesses pulled out cell phones and started recording.
In one video, an officer can be heard yelling at Ames to get his hands up. The officer, identified by Phoenix police officials as Officer Christopher Meyer, is then heard yelling at Ames, "I'm gonna put a f------- cap in your f------- head."
It sounds like being stopped by the police is a fairly regular occurrence in your life.

This skinny dude, wife and kid were never a physical threat.
Until they show a threat of violence, a violent reaction is uncalled for.
Cops should always be cautious, use handcuffs and their patrol car as needed, etc... But 11 cops aiming guns at a family who show no obvious threat is wrong.
