Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego issued a statement on Twitter Saturday about the viral video of a disturbing interaction between a young family and Phoenix police officers.

The video shows police pointing guns and yelling threats at Dravon Ames, 22, his pregnant fiancee, Aisha Harper, and their two young daughters after the family said their daughter took a doll from a Family Dollar store.

Doesn't excuse the foul mouthed cop...but they are crooks.  and crooks lie.
