MIAMI BEACH, Fla. — Miami Beach police have released the body camera footage from an incident where an officer was struck by a man on a scooter.
It happened on Nov. 17 on the Beachwalk at 71st Street.
According to police, officer Julio Blanco suffered a hairline fracture to his elbow as a result of the collision with 29-year-old Noah Aloush, who then took off in an attempt to flee.
Blanco joined a search for Aloush, who allegedly rode around on his scooter for about 10 minutes before officers were finally able to take him into custody.
Aloush, a graduate student at the University of Miami, had to be tazed twice before being handcuffed, police said.
He faces charges of aggravated assault of a police officer, fleeing and eluding police, resisting an officer without violence, failure to obey a police officer and reckless driving.
A Judge granted Aloush a $20,500 bond and has since been released from jail.
