Marion, IN - Police have released body camera footage in an incident at Idyl Wyld Roller Rink in Marion last weekend that led to the arrest of two teenagers.

The Grant County Sheriff’s Department said in a release that officers were called to the roller rink on reports of a fight on Saturday, March 29. Police say they were told by staff that they wanted those involved to be removed from the property.

Officers say they were going to remove the teens from the property and then release them to their parents, but say two of the teens then became uncooperative and disorderly.

The department says the girls resisted arrest despite repeated verbal commands, “requiring officers to use force” to detain them.

The Marion Police Department shared footage of the incident online on Wednesday evening.

In one video, one of the teenage girls begins to walk away from officers after they stated she was going to be arrested. Video shows her resisting arrest as officers attempt to handcuff her.

Another officer’s body camera shows officers throwing the second teenage girl down on the pavement after she resisted arrest, and one officer is seen hitting her with his fist multiple times.

A different angle shows her kicking her legs as the officers attempt to detain her. One officer then sprays her with mace as other officers put her in cuffs as she continues to yell.

“She kicked me right in the f****** face,” one officer says.

“She kicked me too, battery on police,” another officer is heard saying.

The Grant County Sheriff’s Department says the two teenagers were both arrested and charged with resisting law enforcement and battery on a police officer.
