An NYPD officer was arraigned on an assault charge today after prosecutors say he was seen on body camera video hitting a man in the face at an Apple store. As NatDuddridgeTV reports from court, the police union says he was just trying to do his job.
Officer Salvatore Provenzano was arraigned on an assault charge Wednesday after prosecutors say he was seen on body camera video hitting a man in the face at an Apple store in Manhattan.
Provenzano has been an officer since 2007. Prosecutors say on Oct. 19, 2021, he responded to a call at the Apple store at 1891 Broadway for a person who was disturbing customers. He tried to assist other officers in removing the man from the store, but he got loose from his grasp. The case was presented to a grand jury, and Provenzano was charged with assault in the third degree. The district attorney's office noted the officer has no history of this type of conduct and offered him a plea for harassment in the second degree. His defense attorney declined, so there will be a trial.
