The officer, who has not been identified, can be seen in the video laughing while using a stun gun on the man, who is also unidentified. The man was reportedly being arrested on a fentanyl trafficking charge.
In the video, the officer tells the man to get on the hood of a car and then searches him. The man can be heard saying, "I ain't doing shit, bro. I got a gun right there." The officer responds by laughing and then tasing the man.
