Jacksonville, Florida police investigating viral video showing officer punching driver
00:00:10.020
So if you want to play the video that we've all seen, guys, brace for impact.
00:00:14.980
When you watch the video, the guy gets smacked upside the head by a cop.
00:00:18.140
And then Vinny's got a bunch of stuff that he wants to say.
00:00:25.100
Vinny, if you want to tell us what's going on so far, just for this video, not the other
00:00:36.300
He didn't have his headlights on during inclement weather.
00:00:38.920
And just an FYI to everybody out there that's like, what?
00:00:43.820
If your wipers are on, your headlights have to be on, too.
00:00:51.560
And mind you, this incident happened months ago.
00:00:53.880
He waited a month and then just posted this one piece of content to get the public pissed
00:01:06.280
But this is what this guy, William McNeil, posted.
00:01:18.480
And then they sat on this until July to release it.
00:01:23.860
And I'll tell you what, because the sheriff does something great in this interview.
00:01:33.860
I opened my door because my window don't work, right?
00:01:38.520
He said, well, for one, your headlights are off under this weather.
00:01:43.540
I'm like, there's multiple people's headlights off, first of all.
00:01:55.760
There's water on the window up top of the sunroof.
00:02:49.620
By the way, the cop that hit him, PBD, with the hit, he's under investigation.
00:02:55.980
But now, what you guys didn't see, and Rob, can you play the clip that I sent you?
00:03:00.880
And just so you know, where the actual window breaking happens is more than six minutes
00:03:06.900
So this, Bob, I sent you one that has boom, boom, boom, boom.
00:03:09.280
So remember, six, almost six and a half minutes of dealing with this guy.
00:03:15.160
I want you guys to see this, and I'm going to say my piece.
00:03:24.880
Is there a reason why you're popping the door open like that?
00:03:30.220
Yeah, absolutely there's a reason why I'm pulling you over.
00:03:31.960
For one thing, inclement weather, you don't have your lights on.
00:03:42.940
Give me your driver's license, registration, proof of insurance.
00:04:05.160
Open the vehicle and exit before we're going to break the window.
00:04:07.500
Open the door and exit or we are going to break the window.
00:04:10.440
Open the door and exit or we are going to break the window.
00:04:44.740
The officer, like I said, is going to get in trouble
00:04:56.260
Just comply, he could have been on the road in five minutes
