Use of force video of Saskatchewan RCMP goes viral as First Nations leaders raise concern

WARNING: Video contains disturbing content. Viewer discretion is advised. A viral video showing the arrest of a 40-year-old woman in the Makwa Sahgaiehcan First Nation by Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) officers is sparking concerns among First Nations leaders and advocates, who are questioning the level of force used. In a video shared on social media, two Saskatchewan RCMP officers could be seen forcing Rose Angus to the ground and handcuffing her, shortly after one officer punched her several times in the face and the other tased her in the back. While Angus was being handcuffed, one officer could be seen holding her down with his knee close to her neck. Later in the video, officers tell Angus to stand up, and when she does, her face is covered in blood. Global's Vanessa Tiberio reports.
