#6  WATCH W/O Audio

Pre-Video
Officers said they were trying to stop Crudup for illegally parking when he struck an officer with his motor scooter while attempting to flee the scene.

Video + 4
Suspect Dalonta Crudup (the Scooter owner/driver) is seen via Royal Palm Hotel security Camera FLEEING Police into a elevator. Where he is stopped and ordered to place himself on the ground. He did so at this point w/o incident.

A lot of additional (about 9+) Police then arrived on scene at the Royal Palm Hotel in South Beach where the arrest was already in progress.

Video 25+
At this point the suspect and police arresting him and reportedly turned physical and the suspect is now strongly resisting.

At + 33 seconds there is a pile of police surrounding him and he is still fighting with them. As can be seen from the video a police is knock back several feet and others are being pushed up and back away from him (resisting arrest)

Khalid Vaughn the FB/BoobTube Videographer wanta-be is now seen.

At (1m 18s)
A police officer is seen to what appears to be kicking. But note the officers footing and the skirmish still in progress.

At 1m 45s+
The suspect is lifted off the floor and still resisting. The suspect appears to shake away from the officer holding him, thus falling to the floor.

At 2m 16s
The suspect is still being combative
==============================================

NOTES:
1. Given Dispatch and the Watch commander must have been involved given the number of Police at the scene. It is pretty clear the suspect Dalonta Crudup obviously fled a good distance and across several patrol areas.

2. GOOGLED his "latest" Mugshot doesn't look like he was kicked or was visibly harmed in any shown manner.

3. No stranger to Felony resisting Arrest and run-ins with the law.

4. Tracked him back to a Gun/Drug Distribution related arrest back in Sunday, January 12, 2020 Incident in DC.

Metro-DC In that incident Officers eventually wrestled the backpack from Crudup and found marijuana, cash, and an M&P pistol, the sworn statement says. Crudup was charged with carrying a pistol without a license. A Smith & Wesson M&P Bodyguard .380 caliber handgun was recovered in the 2500 block of 14th Street, Northeast. The following person was arrested: 23-year-old Dalonta Valeri Crudup, of Silver Spring, MD, for Carrying a Pistol without a License, Possession with Intent to Distribute Marijuana, Possession of Unregistered ammunition, and Possession of a Large Capacity Ammunition Feeding Device. CCN: 20-007-295

He had a ACLU lawyer and beat the charge over a report wording vs a court testimony technicality.

5. Moved from DC to Miami in the last year?????


SUMMARY: Could have been handled much better given the number of police present.

#5  Those police just made those two wealthy.

#4  The courts for the most part have not supported police who take down bystanders filming incidents. Unless the one recording is way too close and fails to give the officers sufficient space. Some lawyer is going to get a big commission.
