Right now, Detroit Public Schools says it is investigating what some call police brutality against a student.

Security video posted on YouTube shows what the poster says is a case of police brutality. The incident was posted online last week but recorded in December.

The vide o shows an officer escorting a student in the hall. When she pulls out her phone, the officer appears to knock it out of her hands and then push her.
