A North Carolina police officer has been fired after viral doorbell camera video shows him repeatedly punching a woman during an arrest, sparking protests on Friday.

The firing came after the Shelby Police Department completed an administrative investigation into the incident, Shelby Police Chief Brad Fraser announced Saturday.

The officer, whose name officials have not released, had previously been placed on administrative suspension.

The findings of the investigation have also been turned over to the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation for an independent review of any criminal violations, the chief said.

The previous suspension and reinstatement will make the lawsuit go easier against him personally and the department.

When a person resists arrest what is the cop supposed to do? Talk harshly and hope the suspect complies?
I've not seen a video where the suspect is complying and gets punched in the face.
