NAACP, family attorney call for criminal charges against deputies in teen’s arrest

A week after an unarmed black teen was forcefully arrested by white deputies, nationally renowned civil rights attorney Ben Crump and NAACP leaders are calling for criminal charges to be filed against the cops.

Fifteen-year-old Delucca “Lucca” Rolle was pepper-sprayed in the face and slammed to the ground outside a McDonald’s in Tamarac after school let out on April 18 at Taravella High. One deputy punched Rolle and bashed his face into the pavement, leaving with him with a fractured nose.

The incident, captured on a cellphone recording that’s drawn millions of views on social media, has sparked national outrage amid claims of police brutality.

“That video shows who really committed the crime that day,” family attorney Crump said Thursday during a news conference at the Broward County courthouse.
