A policeman punches an African-American teenager in the face in the face.
Controversy is again generated around the alleged abuses of force by US police. A recent video shows the moment when an African-American teenager is hit in the face by an officer outside a shopping center in the town of Wauwatosa, Wisconsin.

According to reports, five children were expelled from the Mayfair Mall for inappropriate behavior, but the 17-year-old boy would have resisted arrest. The images show the policeman hitting him repeatedly while being held by another security agent.

"We thoroughly review all the incidents in which an officer uses force and we will also do so in this incident," Wauwatosa Police Chief Barry Weber told Slate. He clarified, however, that the video shows only one side of the confrontation.
