Raleigh man beaten by law enforcement in April charged this week with assaulting officer

Kyron Dwain Hinton, 29, also was charged with damage to government property, resisting arrest and second-degree trespassing.

Raleigh police officers responded to a disturbance at Longview Grocery, at 2405 Poole Road, at about 8:30 p.m. and found Hinton swinging a bottle of bleach and an ash trash stand, police said.

When the officers tried to restrain Hinton to prevent him from harming himself or others, he struggled with them and kicked at them, police said. Medical personnel were called to provide medical assistance, and Hinton was taken to WakeMed for evaluation.

Hinton previously said he suffered a broken eye socket, broken nose, multiple cuts on his head, "probably 20 bite marks" and memory loss during and April 3 incident when several officers pushed him up against a patrol car and beat him up while a Wake County Sheriff's Office K-9 bit him on his right arm, side and head.

Officers were responding to reports of a man with a gun yelling at passing cars near the intersection of North Raleigh Boulevard and Yonkers Road when they confronted him. No gun was found.

Dashboard camera videos from patrol cars at the scene show Broadwell hitting Hinton as his K-9, Loki, takes Hinton to the ground.

During the ensuing scrum with several officers, one officer is seen kicking Hinton, while another can be seen punching him as he refuses to give in to law enforcement.

In the audio for several dashcam videos, including Broadwell's and Blake's, someone repeatedly issues an order to hit Hinton in the head.

The indictments allege Broadwell and Blake beat and kicked Hinton and that Davis hit him with her flashlight.
