Video captures chaotic New York migrant shelter arrests as woman obstructs officers
Yonkers Police Department met with resistance at Ramada Inn location
Police bodycam footage has captured the moment chaos erupted this week at a hotel migrant shelter north of New York City as officers trying to make an arrest were met with resistance.
Video released by the Yonkers Police Department begins with a caller telling a dispatcher that "guy's over here unruly" and "he's getting very violent with everybody" at a Ramada Inn in Yonkers.
"He's throwing stuff at everybody, please send somebody here right away," the caller demands.
"After disobeying several attempts to move, Officers had to push Hernandez out of the way in order to open the door and safely detain Kent in the rear of the vehicle," police said in a statement. "Hernandez also attempted to pull Officers away from Kent in the process."
The bodycam footage later shows Hernandez being taken down to the ground by police and brought into custody herself.
"When Officers attempted to place Hernandez into handcuffs, she immediately pulled away from several Officers and attempted to strike multiple Officers with her hands," Yonkers Police said. "In this struggle, one Officer sustained injuries to his right knee and wrist and subsequently had to be placed off-duty."
