SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO – Warning Graphic Language<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The man in the video is a member of the NYPD’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, an elite group that handles counterterrorism cases in the city alongside FBI agents.<\/p>\n

He has been\u00a0placed on modified duty and transferred, Commissioner Bratton said.<\/p>\n

From NBC-NY:\u00a0“He really should not be judged by one isolated incident,” said Michael Palladino, the president of the union.<\/em><\/p>\n

Bratton disagreed, saying, “In that kind of encounter, anger like that is unacceptable. In any kind of encounter, discourtesy like that and language like that is unacceptable.”<\/em><\/p>\n

“No good cop can watch that without a wince,” he said. “All good cops know that the officer just made their jobs a liittle bit harder.”\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

YouTube Description: Police abuse of Uber driver in New York City. In an unmarked car, the policeman was allegedly attempting to park without using his blinker at a green light. (His reverse lights weren’t on. Likely double parked without hazards on.)<\/p>\n

The Uber driver pulled around and gestured that he should use his blinker, casually and non-offensively, and kept driving us. The policeman aggressively pulls up behind us and this is what happens.<\/p>\n

(This occurred just before 2pm on the West side of Manhattan, in police precinct 6, on March 30th, 2015. The officer did not identify himself, but he had a New York license plate: GSS 8891)<\/p>\n
