“The violence used by NYPD officers in this video is extremely disturbing and unacceptable. Officers should never treat a person this way. The NYPD is conducting a full investigation into this incident,” Mamdani wrote on X.
He linked to footage posted by NYPD veteran and streamer Sal Greco showing the violent Tuesday arrest.
Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said she had been briefed on the incident, and that the matter was under internal review by the Internal Affairs Bureau.
“We’ll have more to say about it as that investigation unfolds,” she said.
The two officers involved were placed on desk duty pending the probe.

The Post confirmed the suspect — who the cops claimed was resisting arrest — was not charged with drug possession after being taken into custody.
