A Black paraplegic man from Ohio has filed a complaint with the NAACP after body camera video showed police officers pulling him out of his car by his hair and arms after he refused officers' orders during a traffic stop late last month.
Officers said they pulled Owensby over because he was seen leaving a suspected drug house police were monitoring. Owensby accused the Dayton Police Department of profiling, unlawful arrest, illegal search and seizure, and failure to read him his rights before being taken to jail, Dayton Unit NAACP President Derrick Foward said at the news conference. "They dragged me to their vehicle like a dog, like trash," Clifford Owensby, 39, said at a news conference Sunday.
The officer tells Owensby he will assist him in getting out of the vehicle, but Owensby tells the officer not to touch him and requests the officer call a superior. The officer responds by saying he will call his superior, but Owensby must get out of the car first. "So you can cooperate and get out of the car, or I will drag you out of the car. You see your two options here?" the officer yells at Owensby, who repeats his request for the officers to call a superior.
