Two Seattle police officers are under investigation after a bystander recorded them beating a man with their batons at a bus stop last week.

In the video, which was posted online and first reported by NBC affiliate KING 5-TV, two officers can be seen hitting a man with their batons last Friday afternoon. In the 40-second clip, one of the officers appears to grab the man’s hair before he uses a knee to pin him down.

The video does not show what occurred before the officers started beating the man.

    Yeah I’m being an incredibly facetious devil’s advocate saying the only way to save the city is to beat the absolute shit of of a dude.
