Brother And Sister Charged With Assault of NYPD Officer Making Arrest




[From article]
The 36-second cellphone video starts off with a man pushing a cop from the 32nd Precinct trying to handcuff his sister near 144th Street and 8th Avenue around 11:30 p.m.
“That’s my sister,” the man, identified as cops as Terrell Mitchell, 26, can be heard yelling before he sucker punches the male officer twice in the back of the head, knocking off his glasses.
According to police, Mitchell’s sister, Asia Banks interfered and started pushing cops after they stopped her brother for having an open bottle of Hennessy cognac.
Banks, 38, then started to resist and began pushing officers, at one point reaching for a female officer’s gun in her holster, cops said.
The video shows Banks grabbing the hands of the officer as she places her hand over her weapon.
