Yet another shamed Met police officer could face the boot, for kicking and punching a man he was arresting.
Thomas Karlsen, 22, has admitted assault causing actual bodily harm during a callout to a domestic dispute. We can reveal the attack came a year after the PC was reported by another officer for lashing out at women on social media.
Karlsen was already facing misconduct proceedings for these tweets – deemed unprofessional, offensive and abusive in a Met report.
