March 3, 2007 - Surveillance video shows shows Yonkers police officer Wayne Simoes throwing Irma Marquez to the floor during her arrest at a Yonkers restaurant last year.
Marquez suffered a fractured jaw and a concussion. She was later acquitted, and now has an $11 million lawsuit pending against the Yonkers Police Department.
An internal investigation cleared Simoes, but he now faces federal civil rights charges.
