Curious Artist Manhandled by Support Officers


Italian student and artist Simona Bonomo was stopped by Police Community Support Officers in London for filming "iconic" buildings. When she told them she was "filming for fun," the Support Officers didn't believe her, under the suspicion of a possible link to terrorism.

Man, this guy is an asshole. When she failed to produce identification, he accused her of cycling the wrong way down a one-way street. The incident escalated when four additional Support Officers tackled Simona to the ground, twisting her arm behind her back, and arrested her, detaining her in a jail cell for more than five hours.
