Viral video shows an NYPD officer punching a woman to the street in Harlem on Tuesday after the two exchanged shoves during the arrest of a man sought in connection with an attempted murder case. (Watch the clip below.)

The clip appears to show the officer, Det. Kendo Kinsey, attempting to push the woman, Tamani Crum, away from the scene before she lunges at him. He then decks her and she falls backward on the asphalt.

Crum, a 19-year-old hairdresser, was arrested on the spot and charged with assaulting an officer, resisting arrest and obstruction but was later arraigned on just obstruction, according to the New York Post . She pleaded not guilty.

Another woman was arrested on similar charges and a third was issued a summons for spitting at an officer, the NYPD told HuffPost.

I get blown away to see this happen to my daughter, its so painful for a mother to see that, Crums mother, whose name was not used, told NBC New York . They are just violating these kids rights, its not right.

Kinsey has had six complaints of misconduct filed against him by citizens in the last 10 years, according to a Civilian Complaint Review Board database. Two were substantiated, records show.

Kinsey remained on active duty as of Wednesday, the New York Post reported .

While police were effecting the arrest multiple individuals on scene interfered by physically assaulting numerous officers. One officer sustained a minor injury to the head, the NYPD, which is investigating further, said in a statement to HuffPost on Thursday.

The Detectives Endowment Association made a more forceful statement (per the Post): When you assault a New York City Detective in order to interfere with an arrest of a man armed with a gun there are repercussions, The DEA is also considering a lawsuit against Crum.

Crums lawyer, Jaime Santana Jr., accused Kinsey of excessive force.

The officer involved in this case was approximately three times her body weight and size, Santana told CBS2 . This was unnecessary and its unacceptable. This has to stop.

When did it become a tactic for crowd control to knock somebody else unconscious? Rev. Stephan Marshall of Rev. Al Sharptons National Action Network said to NBC New York.

Police took Elvin James, a suspect sought in connection with a shooting in early August, into custody. Cops say he was armed. He was also charged with criminal possession of a weapon and resisting arrest.
