WEST PALM BEACH, FLA. (WSVN) - Members of a nonprofit organization in Palm Beach County are furious about a video that shows a violent arrest made by Florida Highway Patrol troopers and U.S. Border Patrol agents in May.

FHP and Border Patrol performed a traffic stop on Singer Island, off the coast of Palm Beach County, May 2.

An 18-year-old landscaper, who is a U.S. citizen, was taken into custody along with three of his coworkers, including his mother.

Cellphone video captured authorities becoming physical with two of the people taken into custody, forcing them to the ground.

“That’s not how you arrest people,” a third man can be heard telling officers.

One of the people detained by authorities was seen being grabbed around the neck and held in a chokehold.
