From al.com:

"FOLEY, Alabama -- An Arizona couple reportedly outraged by a Foley police officer’s walk-through at an area Walmart last week was arrested after the man allegedly hit the officer and his wife jumped on him.

Anthony Scott Smith, 41, and his wife, Chrisanna Elizabeth Smith, 40, of Scottsdale, Arizona, were arrested Friday and charged with disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and second-degree assault on a police officer.

According to Lt. Thurston Bullock, the couple became irate when they saw Officer Caleb Bibby in Walmart shortly before 11 p.m. Friday. They approached him aggressively, accusing him of treason and of shopping on duty and telling the officer he was under federal investigation, Bullock said.

Bullock said Bibby was conducting a walk-through of the business. He said the officers are permitted to buy something during such walk-throughs, but it was unclear whether the officer made a purchase."





In my opinion, the use of force seemed justified. Thoughts anyone?

By the officers? Yes.
 
Let me correct myself myself: I believed the use of force in this case was justified by the officers.
 
Oooh! There's a video!

Was something wrong with the OP video? Sure, it dosn't have that "LiveLeak" watermark on it, but it's the exact same IPhone video, the format of which SUCKS.

I'm skeptical about the whole Scottsdale story. They have been in AL at least three weeks according to the story, and they look like purebred Bama.

*cue Lynyrd Skynyrd*

"Turn it up"...

Bullock said he and several other officers had a run-in with the couple and another woman in a restaurant 3 weeks ago. The group entered the establishment and Anthony Smith approached Bullock, watched him, then hovered over him with his arms crossed and motioned liked he was eating. The group sat at a table behind the officers and then began screaming at a waitress when she told him that the restaurant doesn’t de-vein its shrimp. Smith then left the restaurant, Bullock said.

You can't expect everything at Waffle House.
