EL PASO, Texas (KFOX14\/CBS4) \u2014 A tense encounter between El Paso police officers and an individual was seen on a viral video inside a retail shop, showing officers restraining and removing the person from the premises.<\/p>\n

According to Fitfam, the incident happened on Wednesday at a clothing shop on Yandell Drive.<\/p>\n

The footage recorded begins with officers attempting to control a woman wearing a blue shirt. <\/p>\n

The situation quickly escalates as at least two officers physically restrain her against a counter before bringing her to the ground.<\/p>\n

In the video, the woman can be seen struggling while officers attempt to secure her arms. <\/p>\n

The officers eventually bring her to a kneeling position on the floor as they continue efforts to detain her. <\/p>\n

The situation then moves outside the store, where additional officers are present. <\/p>\n

Police vehicles can be seen parked nearby. <\/p>\n

VIDEO: Warning video be disturbing to some viewers. <\/p>\n

Officers continue to hold the woman as they escort her out. During a moment outside, a female officer is seen punching the woman in the face. <\/p>\n

You hear the female officer say, “No ma’am, no ma’am. You do not do that.”<\/p>\n

It is not immediately clear what led to the confrontation or whether any charges have been filed. <\/p>\n

Authorities have not yet released an official statement regarding the incident, and the condition of the individual involved is unknown. KFOX14\/CBS4 has reached out to the police and is awaiting a response. <\/p>\n

The video has begun circulating online, prompting questions about the circumstances surrounding the arrest and the level of force used. Further details are expected as the investigation develops.<\/p>\n
