If you tried to share a New York Daily News article about police brutality on Facebook today, you may have run into trouble. The article was blocked from sharing on Facebook for much of the afternoon, with some users receiving a message that the content had been blocked because it "includes content that other people have reported as abusive."

The Verge confirmed the block shortly after noon ET. Facebook prevented the article from being scraped by the company's link tools, and also stopped the URL from being shared. Other Daily News articles were unaffected. Our tests seemed to indicate spam issues, with the error message reading: "Posts that look like spam according to our community guidelines are blocked on Facebook and can't be shared."

The block has since been lifted and seems to have only lasted a few hours. Reached by The Verge, a Facebook representative said the article was mistakenly listed as spam as a result of an automation error. It's unclear whether brigade voting or other user campaigns might have triggered the automated error.

A grand jury has indicted two former Georgia police officers on multiple charges after they were recorded beating and kicking a handcuffed black motorist during a traffic stop early last year.

Former Gwinnett County Sgt. Michael Bongiovanni and former Master Police Officer Robert McDonald, who were both fired after the April 12, 2017, incident, were hit with a 10-count indictment on Wednesday.

The indictment followed a Gwinnett County grand jury's viewing of two videos that captured 21-year-old Demetrius Hollins being violently taken into custody near a busy intersection, Atlanta station 11 Alive reported.

One video shows Hollins holding his hands in the air before an officer appears to punch him in the face. Another shows him lying handcuffed on the ground as a second officer runs up and appears to stomp on his head. Hollins, who was left bloody and bruised, was also allegedly hit with a stun gun.

Both men were previously charged one count of violation of oath of office, which is a felony, and one count of battery, which is a misdemeanor.

The latest charges against them include battery, violation of oath of office, making false official certificates or writings, and aggravated assault, which stems from an officer allegedly pointing a firearm at Hollins' head, according to a copy of the indictment obtained by HuffPost.

Gwinnett County Police Department

Lawyers for both officers have denied wrongdoing and said they plan to fight the charges.

"Bongiovanni, in a split-second, highly intense situation of de-escalating the situation, did everything he was trained to," the former officer's attorney Mike Puglise told CBS 46.

The initial charges brought by the officers against Hollins ― including obstruction of a law enforcement officer, driving without a license plate, not using a turn signal and carrying less than an ounce of marijuana ― have been dropped.

The Gwinnett County Solicitor's Office also dropped 89 unrelated criminal cases last year in which Bongiovanni or McDonald was the principal officer or a necessary witness. The office reasoned at the time that the two men no longer had credibility and therefore could not "be relied upon as witnesses in any pending prosecution."

Dallas - A white former suburban Dallas police officer fired and charged with murder after killing an unarmed black teen has a long history of hostile and aggressive behaviour, according to a court record filed on Thursday.

The most recent instance was a night last April when former Balch Springs police officer Roy Oliver "flipped off" the vehicle in which 15-year-old Jordan Edwards sat, dead from Oliver's gunfire, according to the "notice of extraneous offenses" filed by the Dallas County District Attorney's Office.

Prosecutors state in the three-page filing that they will detail the former officer's behaviour for a Dallas County jury hearing the murder case. Oliver's attorney, Jim Lane, did not return messages seeking comment.

The earliest entry in the record shows that in eighth grade, Oliver carried a knife and a stun gun, wore paramilitary clothing and was a member of a group called "Caucasians in Effect", in which he posted swastikas in public places and hated anyone who wasn't Caucasian, according to prosecutors.

The court document also quoted from a 2011 pre-law enforcement employment psychological examination Oliver took. The assessment said Oliver "may feel so insensitive to threat that his judgement may be impaired in evaluating the risk of danger", and that "his sense of entitlement may be so strong that the possibility of his behaving in an antisocial manner must be considered".
Aggravated assault
In 2013, while testifying before a jury in Dallas County, the filing said Oliver was "uncooperative and used profanity" in his responses to an attorney's questions. He also used profanity and "communicated aggressively" with prosecutors and their staff.

Two weeks before Edward's death, he was accused of committing aggravated assault on two women during which he displayed a firearm.

The night Edwards died, Oliver and his partner were responding to a report of drunken teens at a party. When they entered the home where the party was, the officers heard rapid gunfire outside. They ran outside to find cars leaving, including the one carrying Edwards. Oliver said the driver of the sedan in which Edwards was riding ignored several orders to stop, leading to the shooting.

In a court filing last July, Oliver said that he and his partner feared for their lives when the car carrying five teens, including Edwards, sped past them. Oliver contends he was startled when he heard breaking glass and believed his partner was under threat.

Oliver fired three to five times into the car, mortally wounding Edwards. He also asserted that gunshot residue was found on Edwards, but attorneys for Edwards' family say the gunshot residue came from Oliver when he contaminated the scene.

The murder trial is scheduled for January 22 in state district court in Dallas.
