CHICAGO - The police chief in the Midwestern US city of Milwaukee apologized Wednesday for the tasing and arrest of a black professional basketball player over a parking violation, as his department released video of the incident. The newly-released body cam footage of Brown's arrest shows him initially detained by one officer for parking in a handicapped zone at around 2:00 am on January 26. Soon, at least six additional officers surround Brown and one of them yells: "Take your hands out of your pockets now!" - Police chief apologizes -The city's Mayor Tom Barrett said the video raised "concerns." "Members (of the police department) acted inappropriately, and those members were recently disciplined," Chief Morales said at a news conference.
