Syed Ali, the officer involved, did not know he had been filmed until another officer showed him the video. “That’s when I saw they started becoming a little aggressive, more combative,” he told The New York Times. “What extraordinary professionalism and bravery by NYPD Officer Syed Ali,” New York Mayor Bill de Blasio said on Twitter on Tuesday. “I feel like my rights were violated,” Ali told The New York Times. “All I cared about was that we were able to help this girl,” Officer Ali said.
