In a viral video at a college football game, two officers were shown clearly assaulting fans at the game after seemingly breaking up a fight.
The exact cause of what brought the police officers into the section in the first place is unclear, however, the assault is extremely clear. One officer is shown repeatedly hitting an individual while kneeling on top of his back in the aisle between the rows of seats. Another officer is show trying to gain control of the wrists of another individual, but quickly becomes frustrated with the lack of agreement from the individual.
Upon becoming frustrated, the cop begins to repeatedly strike the college football fan in the back of the head until he screams out in pain. The officer then attempts to throw the individual and nearly falls himself, which is when more officers enter the picture to help. A woman on the right of the video is seen waving her hand in the face of the other college football fan who was on the ground while the police officer beat him.
The woman, who remains unknown since her face cannot be seen in the video, is also captured yelling “goodbye” as the officer continuously punches the man in the face. There is not another video currently from the opposite angle to clearly show the fight, but when the video is stopped, both college football fans appear to be bloodied.
Below is the original video that has been spread around social media, but beware to viewers, the video does contain a heavy dose of violence. The fight occurred during the Florida Gators versus Georgia Bulldogs game that also delivered sparks on the field.

College Football Fans Erupt After Witnessing Violent Police Outburst in Stands
After witnessing the video from the Florida Gators and Georgia Bulldogs stands, many college football fans were quick to provide reactions. The video is currently still under review, and neither the SEC or the Florida Gators have commented on the altercation between the fans and the police. Likely, the event will not be brought to the attention of either side unless it is found that students of either team started the fight.
I would like to see the reasons why they were called to that area. Were those people drunk? Or they causing problems? We only seeing a part of the picture I want to see the whole thing.
