Motorcyclist Andrew Joseph Collins, 28, was beaten by two Dallas Police officers last week after the lamest chase in history. The officers are facing criminal charges, including assault and tampering with evidence. The beating was caught on video.
Officers Paul Gregory Bauer and Kevin Ray Randolph pulled over Collins after the brief chase you can see on the video. For reasons yet to be explained, Randolph and Bauer beat Collins after he appears to give himself up without resistance. Collins is black, the officers are white, but investigators don't see a racial bias.
Randolph was new and on probationary status so he was fired and faces misdemeanor assault and oppression charges for the beating, along with Bauer, as well as felony tampering/fabricating evidence with a third officer.
