‘A Coverup’: White Cops Yanked Black Man Out of Car at Gunpoint and Beat Him, Then Realized They Had the Wrong Guy, But Their Supervisor Had a Plan

Wesley Eggleston II was sitting in his car doing nothing illegal when four white Pennsylvania cops opened his doors and attacked him, pointing a gun at his chest before pulling him out onto the street, then choking, punching, kneeing and tasering the 42-year-old Black man without explanation.

It was only after Eggleston was battered, bruised, and handcuffed on the ground that the four cops realized they had made a mistake and removed the handcuffs.

But a police supervisor arrived on the scene and tried to justify the abuse by claiming Eggleston had tried to flee the scene.
