CAPE CORAL, Fla. — Brittnie Fails admits to being drunk on the street early Sunday and has no problem with being arrested for it. But she does have a problem with what she says was excessive force used to detain her, NBC2 in Fort Myers reports.

Fails is scratched and bruised following the altercation, which was caught on a bystander’s camera, NBC2 says. The video shows her arguing with her boyfriend when a police officer approaches her from behind and grabs her, throwing her to the ground.

Reactions are heard from onlookers who gathered at the scene, many telling the officer it was “uncalled for.”

Fails said she was arguing with her boyfriend. “I was a little drunk so I was pushing pushing him lightly.”

“The next thing I remember is waking up on the ground,” Fails said.

NBC2 in Fort Myers showed the video to residents around Cape Coral. “Looks like the cop cold cocked her. She was clearly intoxicated, but she didn’t see it coming,” one resident said.

Fails tells NBC2 what she also didn’t see coming was the officer’s reaction, which can be heard in the video. “If there’s anything that makes me mad about the entire video it’s not even being thrown on the ground, it’s how he just nonchalantly like ‘Oh my God, get over it, you’re faking it,'” she tells NBC2.

She has bonded out of jail and is filing a complaint against the officers involved.

Cape Coral Police said they have seen the video and will begin an internal affairs investigation. The officer has been placed on administrative duty pending the outcome of the investigation.WARNING: The below is the original video posted to Facebook.
