Muskogee Oklahoma police have released body camera footage showing one of its officers pepper spraying an 84-year-old woman in her home.
In the video obtained by Fox 23 News, police officers are seen kicking in the door of Geneva Smith’s home in pursuit of her son, 56-year-old Arthur Paul Blackmon in the early morning of Aug. 7.
Police said officers were conducting a routine traffic stop on Blackmon, who allegedly ran through a stop sign, when he took off running towards his mother’s residence. When Blackmon refused to follow officers’ orders to come out of the home, police kicked down the door.
