The head of the police union in Rochester, New York, has said that no rules were broken by officers who ended up pepper-spraying a handcuffed nine-year-old girl after being called to a domestic dispute last week. The arrest was caught on body camera, which has since been released.

The Rochester Police Department (RPD) on Sunday released two videos of the apprehension that took place last Friday afternoon. At least seven officers were called to the domestic dispute. They had been told by the girl’s mother that the child was going harm herself and others.
