一名71歲越南裔美籍老翁Lich Vu患有癌症,10月27日被俄克拉荷馬市(Oklamhoma)一名白人警察指控交通違規,二人其後發生激烈口角。Lich Vu被白人警員麵部朝下推倒,導致腦部和頸部嚴重受傷。當地警方事後發布警員身上鏡頭拍攝到的現場畫麵,引發傷者家屬指控警方暴力執法,這名警員現時已被停職。
美國亞裔網民在網上分享警員佩戴鏡頭拍到的事發畫麵:

《紐約郵報》11月12日報道,從白人警員Joseph Gibson的隨身鏡頭拍下的畫麵可見,Lich Vu當時坐在自己車輛的駕駛座上。Joseph Gibson對他說,因為他駕駛時不當掉頭(U-turn),要向他開罰單。但Lich Vu堅稱自己並沒有。幾分鍾後,Lich Vu走出車外,繼續與這名警員理論。
Joseph Gibson其後警告Lich Vu,若他不在罰單上簽字確認,要將他送去監獄。Lich Vu表示自己願意坐牢。警員反指:“你要坐牢?可笑。好吧,那你的車也要沒收。”
從視頻可見,兩人在爭執的過程中,Lich Vu叫警員閉嘴(shut up),警員其後強硬回應。

美國網民分享當地警方發布的視頻還原肇事現場情況:
Joseph Gibson抓住Lich Vu的手臂扭過來,再把他推倒在路麵並扣上手銬。
Lich Vu的女兒表示,父親患有骨癌,事發後需要動手術醫治腦部出血以及頸部骨折,不得不插導流管方可進食。當地電視台報道,Lich Vu直到11日意識依然不太穩定,一時清醒一時昏迷。
Lich Vu的家人指控男警員暴力執法,市警局為此發聲明,表示此案仍在調查,肇事警員Joseph Gibson已停職接受調查。
