It is the latest incident of violence from a police department already under fire for pepper-spraying a 9-year-old girl and fatally injuring Daniel Prude.
Rochester police officers were caught on camera pepper-spraying a woman and 3-year-old child, members of the city’s police accountability board said during a virtual press conference on Friday.
