Two wildly differing accounts of what transpired.
Link here: Game dev suffers broken teeth, skull fracture after trying to film arrest

A longtime video game developer was arrested at a South Carolina gas station on Wednesday afternoon after suffering significant injuries as the result of a tackle by a police officer. The arrest followed the woman's attempt to film officers arresting fellow shoppers at a QuikTrip store in Rock Hill. Soon afterward, both sides of the arrest told vastly different stories of what exactly happened.

The police version, based upon dash cam evidence:
In a statement offered to Charlotte TV station WBTV, Rock Hill Police alleged that "the officer involved made a lawful arrest and used force necessary to effect the arrest of Ms. Pizer." This was determined, RHPD said, after reviewing an officer's body-cam footage and the QuikTrip store's camera footage (neither of which are currently publicly available). A separate report from HeraldOnline clarified that no dash cam footage of the arrest, which occurred near a police car, was captured, as the original arresting officer did not "turn on his blue lights" when arriving at the scene.

The developer's (husband) version based upon Security Camera Footage:
Pizer's husband offered a different account of what happened on his wife's Facebook account on Thursday evening, based on the QuikTrip security camera footage that he was allowed to see by store management:

Video of the incident shows OFFICER Hernandez Talking to Patricia. He tells her to Walk away or be Arrested. She walks away and starts filming with her phone in Selfie mode. Cop runs up behind her and hits her like a football player. She leaves her feet and goes face first into the glass door of the gas station[.] cop then punches her in the head, Picks her up and slams her. AT NO F******G (edited for language) TIME DID SHE HIT THIS BITCH ASS COP. UGH!!!!!! Her teeth were on the ground. I actually found one on the scene[;] a piece of tooth. Blood as well [sic]

Welcome to The People's Court sans Judge Wapner.....You decide.
 
Need to see the actual footage. Otherwise, it's all hearsay. o_O

LE is going to have to get a grip on filming with cell phones. It's not going anywhere. And SC does not seem to have the clearest laws around on it.

And this is going to be a very expensive mess fro Rock Hill most likely. Those 3 statements are not really even close to each other.

Cops dislike any tech or action that makes it harder for them to lie about what happened later. I'm rarely shocked when they lash out over it, it's almost part of the job description these days.
 
If the husbands account is correct. That officer needs to be arrested, not only for aggravated assault but also for filing a false report,
There are some differences from the behavior of the usual YouTube wanna be famous idiot to cause me to suspect that there may be something to this one. Specifically the lack of video release pending a legal filing.
