Tiara Young was pulled over because her taillights were not illuminated while she was delivering food for DoorDash back in mid-May. The 34-year-old alleges that a Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office officer used excessive force during the encounter, which turned violent when she was kneed in the eye and had some braids torn out from her scalp.
Young recorded a cellphone video of the incident, which shows a contentious and chaotic confrontation during which she repeatedly asks why she was being told to get out of the vehicle.
“Ma’am, step out of the car,” says Officer B.M. Magyar in one clip, to which Young responds, “What do you need me to step out of the car for?” The officer replies, “Because I’m requesting you to.”
