A Democratic New York City council member, Susan Zhuang, has made headlines after being arrested for allegedly biting a deputy police chief during a protest in her Brooklyn district. The incident occurred during a demonstration against a proposed homeless shelter, where Zhuang was charged with a felony count of assault in the second degree, along with several misdemeanor charges.
Zhuang has since spoken out against the NYPD, condemning what she described as 'brutality' and 'Asian hate.' She expressed disappointment in the alleged excessive force used by the police during her arrest, emphasizing that there is no justification for mistreatment of citizens by law enforcement officers.
