Dashboard video shows how Sandra Bland traffic stop escalated

HEMPSTEAD, Texas – A police dashboard video released Tuesday shows that a Texas state trooper drew a stun gun on a black motorist and said, “I will light you up” when the woman refused to get out of her car during a routine traffic stop.

The roadside encounter between the trooper and the driver swiftly escalated into a shouting confrontation as the officer tried to pull 28-year-old Sandra Bland from her vehicle.
