NY riot cops suspended after shoving man, 75, to the ground and leaving him bleeding and unconscious

Riot cops in western New York shoved an elderly man to the ground, where he lay bleeding and unconscious on the pavement.

The two officers were suspended by Buffalo Police Commissioner Byron Lockwood and a full Internal Affairs investigation is pending after the disturbing footage emerged on Thursday.

The policemen who pushed the 75-year-old will not be paid during the suspension period.

The disturbing clip shows the man wearing a mask approach a crowd of officers in Niagara Square before he is roughly pushed out of their way by at least two of them.

He stumbles back, falls to the ground, and appears to be knocked out as shouts of "he's bleeding out of his ears" can be heard and bystanders urged someone to call an ambulance.

When one officer attempts to bend down and check on the injured man, he is pulled back by his colleague.

WBFO reported that the man is now in a stable condition at ECMC in Buffalo after the brutal interaction with the cops.
