"A video of white police officers in Syracuse, New York, forcing a crying Black boy into the back of their vehicle over a bag of stolen chips has spurred outrage.

In the video from a bystander posted Monday on Twitter, which has been viewed more than 2.3 million times, a white male cop is seen holding a Black child’s arms behind his back. As the boy sobs loudly, the cop puts him into the back of a police car as two other officers look on.

“What is y’all doing?” repeatedly asks the bystander — 37-year-old Kenneth Jackson, according to Syracuse.com. “He looks like a baby to me.”

“He’s stealing stuff,” answers another cop.

“I’ll pay for it,” the man responds. “Leave him alone.”

The Syracuse Police Department later said in a statement that the boy had been accused of stealing from a store and that he was taken home by the police. They said the boy was not placed in handcuffs and no charges were filed. The incident was “being reviewed.”"
