NEW YORK (AP) — A New York City police officer faces criminal charges that he tried to arrest a man by using a chokehold that was banned after the death
NEW YORK — A New York City police officer faces criminal charges that he tried to arrest a man by using a chokehold that was banned after the death of George Floyd, prosecutors said.
The district attorney said Habib placed the man in a chokehold so tight it impeded his breathing and circulation and made him pass out. Habib’s attorney, Jacob Z. Weinstein, said the officer “will be absolutely vindicated from all these charges.” Police use of chokeholds was already banned in most cases by NYPD regulations at the time the city law was enacted, but officers who used them were rarely prosecuted.
