“Hey!” says the officer at about the 1:10 mark on the video, rapping on the glass. “Keep your window down or I’m gonna get you out of the car.”

Then: “As a matter of fact, get out of the car…We’re not playing this game.”

Another officer with arm tattoos appears threatening to break the window, then hurls open the door. He violently yanks Hill out of the driver’s seat and throws him facedown to the ground with the help of the original cop.

“Drew!” Hill, in handcuffs, yells into his phone, that’s now on the pavement. “I’m getting arrested! Drew!”

Wearing a dark pink T shirt and light ******** shorts, Brooks appears at the traffic stop a few minutes after receiving the frantic call. He talks to Hill in a quiet voice, calming him down as the cuffs are removed. Brooks stays by the star player’s side as Hill is eventually released to play.
