A Fourth of July celebration in North Charleston, South Carolina, descended into violence after a female police officer was dragged to the ground, punched and beaten with a stick while responding to what authorities described as a chaotic 'teen takeover'.
The shocking assault, captured in widely shared video, has drawn national attention as police confirmed four arrests, two injured officers, and the recovery of multiple firearms and a makeshift spear. Investigators are continuing to examine the incident, with officials promising further updates as the case develops.
