Metro reported that two Philadelphia police officers were arrested in February and charged with knocking Rivera off his motorized scooter in May 2013 and then brutally beating him before slapping on the handcuffs.

District Attorney Seth Williams said the officers then falsified their police report to justify the use of excessive force.

Rivera found surveillance video of the incident from a business located on the 2700 block of North 6th St. The video was retrieved by a gal pal and submitted to police.

Charges against Rivera were dropped for the 2013 incident.
