All charges have been dismissed against a deaf Black man with cerebral palsy who was shocked with a Taser and repeatedly punched by Phoenix police officers.
The 911 caller said a white man in his 20s had been the aggressor and was still in the store, the police incident report said.
Body camera video recently released by Showalter showed that Harris attempted to arrest McAlpin within seconds of exiting his vehicle.
She could be heard in the video telling the officers that her husband is deaf and has cerebral palsy.
McAlpin's attorney said Monday that the officers launched a "frenzied and violent attack on Tyron."
