Tom Jordan with the Montgomery County Department of Police told CBS Local reporters : “It does show some use of force by an officer. We are looking into all aspects of this incident and will continue to investigate.” Pesoa posted a $5,000 bond and was released, while the assaulting officer has been assigned to administrative duties and his police powers have been suspended as the department reviews the incident.
