<p>A Tallahassee Police Department officer was placed on administrative leave after a video taken by a bystander surfaced on social media showing him using questionable force on a suspect who allegedly left the scene of a traffic crash. The encounter happened early Friday evening on the sidewalk at Saint Francis Street and Railroad Avenue. A 43-second video posted on Instagram shows Officer Shawn Wright pick up the suspect, a 27-year-old man, and flip him upside down before taking him down head-first and pinning him on the ground. The bystanders who shot the video appeared shocked by what they saw. “Oh my God. They just threw him on the floor head first,” one person said. Another observed, “He wasn’t even fighting them.”</p>
