Two police officers have been indicted in the beating of a University of Maryland student during a rowdy celebration that was caught on video after the basketball win over Duke last year.
State's Attorney Angela Alsobrooks announced the indictments against officers Reginald Baker and James Harrison on Tuesday. The officers are charged with first- and second-degree assault and misconduct in office.
Police arrested 28 students and a video later surfaced showing officers in riot gear beating student John McKenna. Charges were later dropped against many of those arrested that night, including McKenna.
In the video, the beating appears unprovoked. An attorney for McKenna has said he had a concussion, cuts and other injuries.
