More Out-Of-Control State Agents

The altercation – and the driver's licence plate number – was captured on video by a group of Grade 12 students from Ursula Franklin Academy and was broadcast on CP24 and other television stations. "That guy just used the horn...and he said, `move it, move it,'" Sokol told CP24 following the incident. "Surveillance has been a hot-button issue in the media (and) one of the things we're looking at is the usefulness of cameras, so it's interesting they caught this on tape," Ursula Academy teacher Allison Mann, told CP24. The video concludes with a shot of a tooth that had been dislodged from Sokol's mouth on the pavement. Sokol was not otherwise seriously injured but he told CP24 he was rattled after learning the identity of the man charged. "I didn't expect that, that was shock for me," he said yesterday.The students handed over the video to police to be used as evidence. Const. Darius Tierman, who has been on leave since October 2004, turned himself in to police the following morning. http://www.thestar.com/News/article/212433 [Proofreader's note: this article was edited for spelling and typos on May 11, 2007]
