MCKINNEY (CBSDFW.COM) – A McKinney police officer has been placed on administrative leave after CBS11 News first brought to the department’s attention video that had surfaced online of an officer responding to a disturbance at a pool party in Craig Ranch.
Several neighbors called police out to the Craig Ranch North Community Pool Friday evening to report “multiple juveniles at the location, who did not live in the area or have permission to be there, refusing to leave.”
Multiple witnesses told CBS11 News a fight then broke out involving juveniles as well as adults.
When officers arrived at the scene, according to McKinney police, they encountered a large crowd that refused to comply with police command.
A video taken by a witness at the scene shows a McKinney police officer yelling at several of the teenagers to get to the ground and to others to leave the area.
Witnesses told CBS11 News when a 14-year-old girl did not walk away and told the officer “they did nothing wrong”, the officer restrained the teenager girl.
The video shows the officer taking 14-year-old to the ground and placing her face first on the ground.
When several other teenagers surrounded the officer, the video shows the officer pulling out his weapon.
The teenage girl could be heard screaming on the video, “I want to call my mom.”
Some witnesses told CBS11 News they felt the officer acted inappropriately when dealing with the teenagers.
However, other neighbors said given the situation they felt the officers did what was necessary.
CBS11 News contacted the McKinney Police Department Saturday evening regarding the video.
