And now he's in quite a bit of trouble

BROOKLYN — A Brooklyn police officer pleaded guilty Monday to illegally handcuffing and detaining a man after a traffic dispute.

Admir Kacamakovic, 32, an eight-year NYPD veteran, intervened in an argument between two drivers in Brooklyn, the U.S. Attorney's Office said. When one of the men confronted him, saying he was going to

file a complaint against the officer, Kacamakovic handcuffed the man, scarring his wrists.
