A white Chicago police officer resigned after he was captured on video repeatedly grabbing a Black woman walking her dog in a confrontation her lawyers called “racial profiling,” the department said Friday.   https://news.yahoo.com/chicago-officer-resigns-video-shows-030116317.html

Officer Bruce Dyker quit while the Aug. 28 incident was still under investigation, a department spokesperson said.

The encounter occurred shortly after midnight when Dyker asked Nikkita Brown to leave a beach that was closed, according to the Civilian Office of Police Accountability, which reviewed the incident and forwarded its findings to the police department in October.
