Three Arkansas police officers are seen on video beating a young man in Crawford County outside a grocery store.
Currently, the video has gained widespread traction across all of the major social media sites, including Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter.
Many even claimed that the situation in the video is worse than the one where George Floyd was subjected to 9 minutes and 29 seconds of police knelt pressure on his neck and back.
In the footage, three police officers from Arkansas are seen reportedly punching a man who is being detained outside of a convenience store.
In the video tape obtained by MandyNews.com, the police are heard instructing a bystander—possibly someone who was filming the incident—to move away from the scene after knocking the man’s face to the ground.

Randal Ray Worcester, a 27-year-old resident of Goose Creek, South Carolina, has been verified as the man in the video. After assaulting an officer, he was given medical attention for minor head injuries. Charges against him include:
- Charged with second-degree battery

What happened?
According to the report seen by MandyNews.com, Alma police were called in response to a complaint from a store employee who claimed Worcester reportedly spit in their face and threatened them with terrorism.
According to the report, Worcester ran from the store after which Alma police alerted all other law enforcement to keep an eye out for him.
According to reports, Worcester was seen by Crawford County Sheriff’s Office deputies at the Kuntry Xpress in Mulberry. He was friendly initially, but things quickly got aggressive, and he hurt a cop.
