FILADELFIA, EE.UU. (AP) - Las autoridades policiales de Filadelfia retiraron temporalmente de servicio a 15 agentes en tanto investigan una videograbación que muestra a varios policías de la ciudad golpeando y pateando a tres sospechosos.

Un vocero del alcalde Michael Nutter dijo que aunque el funcionario respalda al departamento de Policía, su primera impresión después de ver el video es que los agentes parecen haberse excedido en su autoridad.

El video fue grabado el lunes por la noche por un equipo de la estación de televisión WTXF. Muestra a tres automóviles de la policía deteniendo a un automóvil a un lado de un camino.

    BAGHDAD, IRAQ - NOVEMBER 15: Children from Baghdad's Chaldean Catholic community smile in the pews at a mass attended by Iraqi Christians, local Muslim tribal leaders, and US soldiers November 15, 2007 in Bagdhad, Iraq. The service was held at St. John the Baptist, a church in the neighbohood of Dora that closed earlier this year due to Islamic militant threats. But a recent decrease in violence has allowed the Iraqi Christians to re-open the church for the first time in seven months, and the afternoon mass attracted hundreds of worshippers.

Farnsworth is the chap who invented television 80 years ago, then was cheated out of his due credit, fame and riches. He died in 1971, but, 36 years later, was poised for a posthumous revival. A new play about him was opening on Broadway, then theater stagehands went on strike. (AP Photo/Frank Franklin II)

Las imágenes muestran a más de 10 policías alrededor del vehículo sospechoso y sacando a tres hombres. Alrededor de cinco agentes detienen a dos de los hombres en el suelo, quienes reciben golpes y puntapiés repetidamente. Uno de ellos es golpeado al parecer con un bastón.

El tercer hombre también recibe puntapiés y termina en el suelo.
