Cops Caught on Camera in Late Night Home Entry: "Imma tase the shit out your big ass"
DeKalb County, Georgia
A resident in DeKalb County, Georgia decided to grab his camera when police started banging on his door at 1:30 in the morning. He says he even called 911 to find out what the cops wanted but they didn't tell him. Police say they had a warrant to enter the home based on a civil fine.
"At around 1:30am [sic] my family and I were awaken [sic] by the sound of loud and aggressive banging at our front door. The [a]ggressive nature of the banging frightened us so I walked into the guest room that looks over the front of our house and was shocked when I saw 3 large DeKalb County Sheriff SUV's with large flood lights pointed at our house and windows."
That is the beginning of the description offered for a video posted to YouTube that accuses several officers with the DeKalb County Sheriff's Office of harassing a family late one recent night.
The events depicted in the video, posted by the user yachtclubclthrs, were said to have taken place on July 26.

Authorities told CBS Atlanta no excessive force was used, but admitted the language was inappropriate.
Forget A-Rod, maybe it's time to start testing cops for steroids?
