<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>In this video it's not clear why a woman is arrested
, forced to the ground by two cops, hit at least once and cuffed. The rest of
the bikers stay clear but yell at the cops that she is not resisting arrest and
urge them not to use excessive force. The cop reacts to the bikers
by walking swiftly towards them and spraying anyone who was shouting with
his canister.<FONT size=1></FONT> As another
cop carries her away this renegade cop seems to spray mace in the
arrested womans face even after she is cuffed. <FONT
