US EditionFormer Officer Throws Woman to Ground, Video Shows
ORMOND BEACH, FLORIDA, JUN 25 – Jacob Cannon resigned and faces felony battery after bodycam footage showed him forcefully throwing a handcuffed woman during a DUI arrest, causing a head injury needing seven stitches.
- This week, newly released body camera footage revealed former Ormond Beach officer Jacob Cannon aggressively throwing handcuffed DUI suspect Shanna McRee onto the floor within the police station.
- The incident followed McRee's December arrest for driving under the influence after rear-ending a motorcycle, with conflicting initial claims about how she fell.
- Investigations found Cannon used excessive force, acted negligently and abusively, leading the department to relieve him immediately, initiate internal and criminal probes, and accept his resignation.
- McRee sustained a head injury that required seven stitches and may result in a lasting scar, while Cannon, who is no longer with the police force, was arrested on felony battery charges, posted $25,000 bail, and has entered a plea of not guilty.
- The police department publicly apologized to McRee, disavowed Cannon's actions, emphasized swift leadership response, and the video has prompted calls for a thorough review of department practices.
