āDude, dude, dude, I fuckinā drove down Tremontāthere was an unmarked state police cruiser they were all gathered around,ā the sergeant said, laughing. āSo then I had a fucker keep coming, fucking running. Iām fucking hitting people with the car, did you hear me, I was like, āget the fuckā’ā
At this point the sergeant was notified that the officer he was bragging to body cam was on and he tried to change his story.
āOh, no no no no no, what Iām saying is, though, that they were in front, like, I didnāt hit anybody, like, just driving, thatās all. My windows were closed, the shit was coming in.ā
āThis thing just fucking went on automatically,ā the officer said while the sergeant shook his head.

The footage was given to attorney Carl Williams, who is representing some protesters arrested that night. Williams said the videos shows “the mob mentality” of police officers. “I use āmobā as a sort of a double entendreāmob like the mafia and mob like a group of a pack of wild people roaming the streets looking to attack people,ā he added.
