a little bird Abuse in the LH

I'm wondering if anyone witnesed or filmed an incident that occurred in front of The Cafe International (corner of Haight and Fillmore) at about 3am on either 9/9 or 9/10? 5 police vehicles (ten officers) half undressed a young woman, restrained her wrists and ankles and were both physically and verbally abusive to her (more details but prefer not to share here) The incident began with repeated blood curdling screams and someone else yelling for the police to be called. The above events happen… Continue
