Three D.C. police officers are under criminal investigation after a video circulated online of an officer repeatedly punching a suspect in the face. D.C. Police Chief Robert Contee said Monday that a violent incident caught on camera, in which an officer is shown repeatedly punching a man as other officers tried to handcuff him, has been referred to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for prosecutorial consideration.

Three D.C. police officers are under criminal investigation after a video circulated online of an officer repeatedly punching a suspect in the face.

NBC 4 Washington reported three officers had their powers revoked and put on non-contact status. One officer repeatedly punched the man who they said had an illegal gun while two others were seen on video.

Chief of Police Robert Contee said the officers saw the suspect engage in a drug exchange and patted him down, finding an illegal gun.

None of the officers or the suspect will be identified at the moment, according to the chief. The case is being handed to the U.S. Attorney’s Office and is also being investigated by MPD internal affairs.

A viral video posted online, including on Snoop Dogg‘s Instagram, shows three officers struggling to handcuff a man, who they suspected of possessing a gun. Two officers stood on the man’s sides while the third started throwing punches at the man’s face and body Sunday in Southeast D.C. A fourth officer attempts to contain the crowd that has gathered. The strikes appear to escalate the situation. Bystanders started throwing trash at the officers, one video posted to social media shows.
