NM Officer Resigns After Being Caught on Camera Slamming 11-Year-Old Girl to Ground | NBC New York

A New Mexico school resource officer has resigned after allegedly using excessive force against an 11-year-old girl who he alleges "took more milks than she was supposed to" from the cafeteria.

Lapel video of the Aug. 27 incident involving Farmington police officer Zach Christensen, an 11-year veteran of the department released Monday, appears to show him shoving the crying sixth grader into a wall.

The child then falls to the ground and Christensen can be heard yelling, "Stop resisting" multiple times.
