Video shows the violent arrest of Destiny Luna Saturday at her Angleton apartment.
The video shows an Angleton police officer punching her during a struggle.
Records show that Luna had a warrant out for her arrest related to a speeding ticket.
She says that night an officer knocked on her door about a noise complaint. Luna says she went outside, spoke to police, and the encounter ended with no incident.
She says once back inside, she turned the music down, and said out loud to her friends, “Good thing I didn’t go to jail, because I have a warrant.”
She says just after, the officer knocked again and asked her to go outside.
She says she opened the door, but refused to step outside, “When I wasn’t looking, he grabbed my arm and yanked me outside,” she said.
“He got me by my neck, threw me against the wall, and put my hands behind my back,” she said.
She says she was being cooperative until the cuffs snagged her skin, pinching her. She says once she began to yell about this, she ended up on the ground.
The video shows her and three officers struggling for several minutes.
“I felt like my life was over,” said Luna.
“I’m terrified. I can’t even sleep. When I sleep, I think I’ll wake up to them beating me. It’s hard for me to sleep,” she said.
Luna was arrested that night for the speeding warrant, resisting arrest, and assaulting a peace officer. || Posted by CZ
