A driver in diabetic shock was kicked in the head several times in a shocking display of police brutality that won him $158,000 in a lawsuit.
Adam Greene, of Las Vegas, was pulled over at about 4am on October 29, 2010 after a Nevada State Trooper spotted him weaving in traffic.
Mr Greene claimed he was driving that way because he had fallen into diabetic shock.
The dashcam video shows a Nevada state trooper approaching Mr Greene's car with his gun drawn, saying: ‘Don’t move! Hey driver, do not move! Hands up!’
As five cops restrain the man on the ground, a Henderson police officer walks into the shot and kicks Mr Greene in the head five times.
‘Stop resisting, mother f*****,’ one officer says.
As he is struck, Mr Greene can be heard moaning in agony as the other officers struggle to cuff him.
Officers later searched Mr Greene and found a vial of insulin in his pocket.
The discovery prompts one of the officers to radio in to his dispatcher: 'He’s a diabetic. He's probably in shock, semiconscious.'
Later, one of the police officers discovers the dash cam on the highway patrol cruiser, and is heard mentioning it to a colleague.
'It's on camera,' he says.
The other replies: 'They don’t know you. I wouldn’t worry about it.'
Authorities said they will not release the names of the officers involved in the incident.
The Las Vegas Sun reported that the settlement of $158,000 was OK'd by the Henderson City Council last night, and an additional $30,000 amount will be paid by the state of Nevada.
